The recent statements by superstar Rajinikanth about his possible entry in politics have set off a frenzy of ‘will he-won't he’, particularly among the people in Tamil Nadu.
The occasion was a photo session with fans, which the superstar held after a long gap of eight years. Flanked by veteran director SP Muthuraman, Rajini made a statement of intent, saying that god will decide his future course of action in politics.
Right now, god is using me as an actor… but I can’t say anything about the future. If god decides that I join politics, then I will do so,” he said amid rapturous applause from his fans three days ago.
On Friday again, he dropped yet another hint of a political plunge, perhaps the strongest till date, saying the “political system needs to be changed”.
The BJP has, for long, been wooing the Thalaivar. In fact, the party’s infatuation with the superstar dates back to over a decade when Lal Krishna Advani was at the helm. Party leaders used to regularly visit Rajinikanth, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi was no exception. Rajini has so far played hard to get.
