Amid 'Hindi Imposition' Row, Tamil Actor Quits BJP, Joins Vijay's TVK

In a big political development in Tamil Nadu, actor Ranjana Natchiyaar joined fellow actor Vijay's Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam Wednesday. This comes a day after quitting the Bharatiya Janata Party - which she joined eight years ago - citing dissatisfaction with its policies, including the alleged imposition of Hindi.

Ms Natchiyaar - present this morning at a TVK anniversary bash organised by Vijay at a private resort near Chennai - expressed her admiration for her new political boss, calling him "the next MGR".
