Tamilnadu government canceled the land allotted to the Sterlite Company for its expansion. After a huge protest against the Sterlite company that polluted the air and water in Thoothukudi and created health hazards, the government closed the Copper company in Thoothukudi. The protest against the factory turned violent and 13 people were killed. Following this, the entire state started supporting the Thoothukudi people and a lot of political parties and the film industry stood for Thoothukudi people.
