While the ruling DMK contested the polls with the alliance, ADMK's alliance was drifted much ahead of the polls with the strongest partner of the coalition, PMK, had decided to contest the polls independently.

Superstar Rajinikanth took to Twitter and wrote, "The demise of my dear friend Thiru Srikanth deeply saddens me. May his soul rest in peace."

The ADMK, which was ousted from the regime after a decade, has seen its citadel in the local bodies has been getting collapsed by the astounding victory of the DMK. 

As the results are being unfolded, the parties are bracing up the verdict from the voters and a BJP candidate who had contested in the Coimbatore by-poll had ended up securing only one vote.

The rural local body polls are the latest evidence of how the actor's face worked out well in some areas with his outfit opening its account by winning 50 seats.

Around 80,000 candidates had contested for 27,003 posts and the counting was done in 74 centres across the state.

Karthik's terrible loss has sparked remarks from the opposition parties which had said that he could have got more votes had his family members and BJP cadres voted for him.

He said that with the view of curbing further false accusations against his party's leader, he would get surrendered in the court in connection to the charges filed against him.

As his speech had attracted the wrath of DMK, the local unit of the state ruling party had filed a complaint against Duraimurugan.
