Kamalhasan has announced officially that he is into politics and that he is working out on the basics and details to launch it.
I wish him the best.
Here are some of the roadblocks or points which needs to take care
1. Connect with people
Kamalhassan says he is going to connect with people via an app. Many who vote are outside the app radar and their real problems need to be addressed. The count of app downloads, number of people who attend the meeting or meet up is never or has never translated into votes. The general opinion of Kamalhassan been that he is an intellectual and not many understand what he speaks. It will be very tough to satisfy all.
2. Issues Bothering the people of Tamilnadu
Right post the demise of the Madam Jayalalithaa , the state of tamilnadu has seen various issues and is struggling to cope up at various ends, esp ecially in terms of farmer issues, inter state river problems,investor attraction, jobs creation, infrastructure development, creation of skilled manpower.
This is a very big and important space which kamalhassan needs to address and even politicians who have been in the field for years have struggled to cope up.
3. Funding for the party
It will be actually very difficult for him to keep track of every paisa that comes in and goes out and he has to entrust this with a group of honest people else it will boomerang on him.
4. Communist Love, Atheism
Communists have lost all seats in the parliament and assembly elections in tamilnadu and we see only a bleak future for them in the state of TN. There have not been much of supporters for them except their ideology which is still there on papers and books.
Kamalhasan met a CM who belongs to the communist party, he could have very well taken up the topic of Mullai Periyar with him. Had he succeeded it would have been a master stroke for him .
It is better Kamalhasan does not talk about rationalism , atheism stuff still he launches and has a good base.
5. Booth agents
From chennai till the last booth in kanyakumari we need poll agents for the party and the only 2 parties which seem to have it are the DMK and ADMK. It is still unclear how kamalhassan will handle it
6. Opposition parties
Once the party is launched and you have made clear your objectives, the real test starts. You need to prepared to take all kinds of criticism and people will start creating meme’s too on you. How well kamalhassan can handle it, needs to be seen.
Kamalhasan has taken the plunge, it is an uphill task for him, we need to wait and watch what he is going to do
Again, wish him the best
