DMK MP Dayanidhi Maran and his brother, Kalanithi Maran, are set to face-off for control of the family-owned Sun TV Network - India's largest listed media organisation with a valuation in excess of Rs 24,400 crore as of June 2025, and a hugely influential digital and broadcast platform in Tamil Nadu.
Dayanidhi Maran has sent a legal notice accusing his brother of a "premeditated fraudulent scheme" to grab control of the company after the death of their father, Murasoli Maran, in 2003.
