New Delhi: Months after resigning from the BJP, Tamil actor Gautami Tadimalla on Wednesday joined the AIADMK (All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam) and met with the party's general secretary, Edappadi K. Palaniswami, in Chennai. The move comes ahead of the February 27 Rajya Sabha election and Lok Sabha election slated to happen later this year.

Earlier, Tamil actor Gautami Tadimalla resigned from the Bharatiya Janata Party's Tamil Nadu unit on October 23, citing a lack of support from the party. She alleged that several members were supporting C. Alagappan, who she claimed had betrayed her by swindling her of money, property, and documents. Despite her dedication to the party's cause, including efforts in developing the Rajapalayam constituency during the 2021 polls, Tadimalla felt unsupported and decided to part ways with the BJP after 25 years of association.
