Besides her father Karunanidhi and half-brother Stalin, other notable DMK leaders who personally greeted Kanimozhi, an accused in the 2G Spectrum allocation case, were Dayanidhi Maran and TR Baalu. Kanimozhi is the head of the DMK's Literary Wing. Her supporters have been reportedly demanding a bigger role for her in the party even as it is believed that Stalin is not in favour of such an idea.
