Mumbai: The Thackeray brothers met at a family wedding in Mumbai. Former Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray were seen together at the wedding ceremony. Both cousins had attended the wedding of Raj Thackeray’s sister Jaywanti Thackeray-Deshpande’s daughter. Earlier, Raj had left a wedding ceremony before Uddhav’s entry. However, this time both the brothers stood together and participated in the rituals including Mangalashtak. The families of both were also seen chatting happily with each other. Since Raj Thackeray left Shiv Sena, such a loving union has rarely been seen between the two. After this, speculations have intensified whether the two brothers who lost in the recent assembly elections will come together to save Brand Thackeray.
The entire Thackeray family including Uddhav and Raj were seen at the wedding. This included Uddhav’s wife Rashmi Thackeray, son Aditya and Raj Thackeray’s son Amit Panas.
The wedding was held at Raje Shivaji Vidyalaya, Dadar. On that occasion, the video of Uddhav and Raj Thackeray laughing and talking to each other has also gone viral. In fact, when Maglashtak came, Raj Thackeray himself shouted and called Uddhav and Rashmi Thackeray to him. After this all the families met each other with great enthusiasm.
Let us tell you here that recently Raj Thackeray had attended the wedding of Rashmi Thackeray’s nephew. However, at that time he and Uddhav did not meet face to face.
Uddhav’s Shiv Sena won 20 seats in the November assembly elections in Maharashtra. Raj Thackeray’s MNS, which contested elections on 128 seats, could not get even a single seat and the political future of the two brothers has come into question today. At one time Brand Thackeray was the most powerful person in Maharashtra politics. This brand is in trouble. The old Shiv Sainiks want the two cousins to come together to save them.
Supporters of undivided Shiv Sena also want the Thackeray brothers to come together. Critics believe that Uddhav’s Shiv Sena and Raj’s psyche have come face to face with each other in the assembly elections, hence both are now in the interest of coming together. MNS and Thackeray Sena workers also have a similar desire.
However, Raj Thackeray has maintained his core Hindutva all these years. When it was alleged that Uddhav, especially after joining hands with Sharad Pawar and Congress, had left Hindutva. However, recently Uddhav had adopted an aggressive stance on the demolition of Hanuman temple in Dadar and indicated that he was returning to Hinduism. Political observers believe that the two cousins can come together again if key ideological differences are resolved.
Meanwhile, Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena spokesperson Sanjay Shirsat laughed off all these discussions. He said that on occasions like marriage, leaders of different ideologies shake hands with each other. These social tours have no political meaning.
