On their 23rd wedding anniversary, actress vijayalakshmi Darshan poured her emotions into a heartfelt tribute for her husband, actor Darshan, as she visited him in prison alongside their son. This emotional visit comes at a turbulent time, with fans rallying on social media to send their love and support.

Director-General of Prisons Alok Kumar has vehemently denied rumors of actor Darshan Thoogudeepa attempting suicide in Bengaluru Central Prison, calling them 'completely baseless.' Kumar assured the public that Darshan is well and urged fans to disregard false information.

Actor Darshan Thoogudeepa, facing a murder case, had an emotional jail meeting with his wife Vijayalakshmi and son Vineesh. Despite the reunion, he reportedly did not eat the fruits brought by his family and remained withdrawn afterwards. The meeting occurred after his bail petition was rejected by the Supreme Court.

Chief Minister C Joseph Vijay expanded his cabinet to 33 ministers, with 23 new additions taking the oath. Notably, first-time MLA Marie Wilson was appointed Finance Minister, replacing an experienced predecessor. This marks the first coalition cabinet in Tamil Nadu since independence, with Congress MLAs securing portfolios and a record seven Dalit ministers included.

A hit-and-run investigation in Bengaluru unraveled a murder plot orchestrated by a "rowdy sheeter" and a potato-chip-loving assassin. The duo, along with accomplices, staged an accident to kill a woman and steal Rs 30 lakh from her home. The plan was foiled when neighbors caught one intruder, and CCTV footage revealed the "accident" was a deliberate act.

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin expanded his cabinet, inducting Vanni Arasu from VCK and AM Shahjahan from IUML. This move strengthens coalition representation, bringing the total number of ministers to 33. The expansion follows a recent reshuffle, with key portfolios like Finance and Revenue reassigned.

As part of the reshuffle, Vijay retained the Poverty Alleviation portfolio and reassigned the Women Welfare department, previously held by him, to newly inducted minister K Jegadeshwari. Congress leaders S Rajesh Kumar and P Viswanathan have been allotted the Tourism and Higher Education portfolios, respectively. Another TVK minister, Mohamed Farvas, has been allocated the Labour Welfare and Skill Development portfolio.

TVK leader Vijay is set to take charge of Home and Public Administration portfolios. Key party members are slated for significant roles, including Public Works, Municipal Administration, and Prohibition Enforcement. Other trusted aides are expected to handle Electricity and Commercial Taxes. Congress is likely to secure two ministerial positions, with a junior minister post also considered.
