I still feel sun has to give up the cable arm sumangali to karunanidhi faction, before sun direct will see the light of the day. In fact, sumngali could spread its tentacles all over tamilnadu (cutting, beating and killing other cables) only with the help of the political patronage and muscle power of DMK.
This issue is worth a friendly bet.
Even if maran is not giving SCV to karunanidhi,he(karunanidhi) promised to
the cable operators that the TN govt is starting Arasu cable.So it would be also a problem for the maran owned SCV.
