Tamil Nadu V. N. Janaki Ramachandran and J. Jayalalithaa were both film stars who paired with M.G.R. in many of his movies. Other stars within the Dravidian parties include S. S. Rajendran, K. R. Ramasamy and S. S. Chandran. Television DMK initially used Sun TV Network for its propaganda which eventually led to the birth of the alternate Tamil Channel Kalaignar TV.
