Karti Chidambaram, son of P Chidambaram the Finance Minister of India is a vivid person and a successful businessman. Unlike other politicians, Palaniappan Chidambaram, the finance Minister came from a well knowm family (Karaikudi chettiyars) and so Karti Chidambaram the heir is having the emphasis wherever he goes!! Family Genealogy.
Karti Chidambaram did his schoolings in Don Bosco, Madras. and he went to Austin (University of Texas), where he completed his Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration. And later he jumped to England to get a degree in Law from Cambridge University.
Besides his busy schedule Karthik Chidambaram, plays Tennis daily & has won many tournaments. And I believe that is a very good cricketer too. Coming from a good business minded family, Karti Chidambaram runs his own business like Chess Management Service, a legal advisory firm and a website called Myvakil.com and many more.
Sometime back, he started a website called Karuthu.com & Sujatha, the well known writer, officially inaugurated the website in which any one can express their views on any topic.
"Karti was campaign manager for his father who fought and won the parliamentary seat of Sivaganga in Tamil Nadu this May.Despite being out of electoral politics for several years, Chidambaram senior won from this constituency convincingly.Karti's bright ideas led to a well-conducted campaign with audio-visual techniques, through which people got to hear tapes of favourite songs, both old and the latest, mixed pleasantly with campaign messages", from OnlyPunjab.com

Karti Chidambaram is expected to get some posts in the TamilNadu Congress Committee(TNCC) soon.
