Karunanidhi began participating in theatrical productions at a young age, including composing plays. He also started a news paper during his school days, which grew into the Murasoli, the DMK's official publication. As a high school student, Karunanidhi created the Tamil Nadu Tamil Manavar Mandram, the Dravidian Movement's first student wing. This served as a forerunner to Karunanidhi's wider anti-Hindi demonstrations in 1965.
When he was 14, he formed a student movement against the imposition of Hindi as India's national language during the Anti-Hindi agitation of 1937–40. Growing up in a caste-ridden culture, Karunanidhi was learned about the crippling circumstances that arose from being born into a low caste. His parents were from the Isai Vellalar caste, a caste of musicians that perform at temples and other social gatherings. Karunanidhi was born in the Tamil Nadu village of Thirukkuvalai on 3 June 1924.
