Viral Video, May 5 -- DMK MP A Raja escaped unhurt on 4 May when a stage light installed near the dias from where he was speaking collapsed on the microphone right in front of him during an event due to strong wings in Tamil Nadu's Mayiladuthurai.

A video of the incident has since gone viral on social media.

The event was organised by the Dravida Munnetra Kazagham (DMK) to celebrate Chief Minister MK Stalin's birthday and the party's legal victory in the Governor issue, news reports said.

However, there were moments of panic when the stage light mounted on a steel rod toppled due to strong winds while Raja, a former union minister, was delivering a speech.

In the video, Raja is seen dodging and stepping back just in time as light came...
