It was time for the Nadigar Sangam to go into a huddle on Sunday.

Lead by Vijayakanth, the members of the South India Film artistes Association (SIFAA) convened their annual general body meeting on Sunday to discuss on the forthcoming elections to be held on 30 July.

The biggest question on everyone's lips in Sunday's meeting was whether Vijayakanth would seek a reelection for the top job in the association.

The actor, who has been just elected as an MLA to the State Assembly, made it clear in the meeting Sunday that he might go in for a re-run if put up as a candidate after common consensus.

It looks likely that the existing team of office-bearers including president Vijayakanth and general secretary Sarath Kumar would be re-elected.

Various resolutions including one congratulating DMK chief M Karunanidhi for becoming the Chief Minister for the fifth time was passed. The meeting also acknowledged Jayalalithaa on her becoming the leader of the Opposition, Vijayakanth for getting elected from Vridhachalam Assembly constituency and S Ve Shekher from Mylapore. The meeting also passed a resolution thanking the DMK government for taking a decision to instal thespian Sivaji Ganesan's statue at the Marina.

Among those who took part in the meeting were Nepolean, Radharavi, Manorama, Alex, Thyagu, Sandhya, Murali, Vijayakumar Senthil, Mansoorali Khan.
