How is Kavya Maran related to MK Stalin?
Kavya Maran comes from a prominent business and political family. She is the daughter of Sun Group chairman Kalanithi Maran and Kavery Maran. Kalanithi and former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin are cousins, which makes Stalin a close relative of Kavya. Udhayanidhi Stalin is Kavya's relative as well, being MK Stalin's son.

Apart from her family background, Kavya is widely recognised for her association with cricket and the media business. She serves as the CEO of Sunrisers Hyderabad, the IPL team owned by the Sun Group. She is also associated with Sun TV Network and is regularly spotted at IPL matches and player auctions.

How is Anirudh Ravichander related to Rajinikanth?

Anirudh's father, actor Ravi Raghavendra, is married to Lakshmi, who is the sister of Rajinikanth's wife, Latha Rajinikanth. This also makes Aishwarya and Soundarya Rajinikanth Anirudh's cousins.

Their connection extends beyond family ties, with Anirudh composing music for several of Rajinikanth's films. Their collaborations include Petta, Darbar, Jailer, Vettaiyan and Jailer 2. The song Hukum from Jailer was also among their popular collaborations.
