Career

The arrest was considered highly political as a result of Azhagappan's declining relationship with the then political supremo Karunanidhi.[2]

Since 2010, Azhagappan has also worked in film as a supporting actor, notably winning award nominations for his negative role in M. Sasikumar's Easan (2010)
