Vijayakanth

CHENNAI: DMDK leader Vijayakanth will soon roar like a lion , said his wife and party’s newly appointed treasurer, Premalatha Vijayakanth , on Sunday.

“We will be taking Vijayakanth abroad for treatment again in 15 days. After treatment, he will roar like a lion,” Premalatha told reporters here.

Indirectly hinting that an alliance with the BJP is unlikely, Premalatha said the party would explore the possibility of forming a coalition with like-minded secular parties for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections .

Vijayakanth returned to Tamil Nadu recently after undergoing treatment for renal-related ailments in the US. Except for a late night visit to DMK leader M Karunanidhi’s burial site on Marina Beach on August 20, Vijayakanth has not made any public appearance.

In the first week of September, he was admitted to MIOT International Hospital. He was discharged after a brief stay in the hospital.
