As to whether Radaan TV Corporation would continue providing content to Sun TV, owned by the Maran family, Sarath pointed out that it was for Sun TV to decide.
According to sources, the actor decided to quit the DMK disappointed after being ignored for a ministerial berth following the 2004 Lok Sabha election. Apparently, the DMK leadership was also against his continuing his acting career. The last straw was the DMK’s refusal to allocate seats for his supporters in the Assembly election.
The actor would be campaigning for the AIADMK in the southern districts.
