The Last #Tamil Titan has fallen. Former TN CM #MKarunanidhi was an incomparable man. #TamilNadu has lost at once its greatest contemporary political and creative enigma. Our beautiful language #Tamil will miss #Kalaignar #Karunanidhi This void he has left will take ages to fill.

வஞ்சிக்கப்பட்ட தமிழனை,சுயமரியாதை சூரியனால் சுட்டெரித்து புடம் போட்ட தங்கமாக மாற்றிய கலைச்சூரியனே!
பராசக்தி மூலமாக அரசியல் அறியவைத்து , எங்களைப்போன்ற பாமர்களுக்கும் திரைத்துறையின் கதவை எட்டி உதைத்து திறந்து வைத்த கலைஞரே!
உங்களை கண்ணீரோடு வழியனுப்பி வணங்குகின்றோம்!— Dhanush (@dhanushkraja) August 7, 2018

Inscription on Periyar statue: "God does not exist at all. The inventor of God is a fool. The propagator of God is a scoundrel. The worshipper of God is a barbarian." A salute to the atheism of #Karunanidhi. #ripkalaignar

Deeply saddened by the passing away of Kalaignar Karunanidhi. He was one of the senior most leaders of India.
We have lost a deep-rooted mass leader, prolific thinker, accomplished writer and a stalwart whose life was devoted to the welfare of the poor and the marginalised. pic.twitter.com/jOZ3BOIZMj
