The cut out said that people are ready to accept the leadership of Deepa, "who has the blessings of Jayalalithaa."
Meanwhile another poster of Jayalalithaa's long time aide Sasikala in Sundrapuram area was found blackened by some miscreants, police said, adding it was removed.
Posters hailing Sasikala and urging her to take over the reins of the party and some in support of Deepa had appeared all over the state about two weeks back.
Those supporting Deepa had described her as "Kulavilakku" (guiding lamp of Tamilians) and "Aala Pirandavale" (born to rule), incarnation of Amma, as Jayalalithaa was known among party cadres.
Sasikala, 60, had been a close aide of Jayalalithaa for three decades and was always seen as a power centre in AIADMK.
