The gathering reportedly included several administrators, former Rajya Sabha member Ravi Bernard and supporters from overseas. Discussions focused on the organisation’s future activities and plans to strengthen its presence across the state.The key decision was to bring the existing fan clubs under the ‘Dhanush Narpani Iyakkam’ name. The change is expected to provide the organisation with a more structured identity and place greater emphasis on social service. While the move marks a shift in how the actor’s fan network is organised, the specific welfare initiatives and their implementation plans have not been detailed in the information available.
