Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan Talk : "Travelling Together"

The actor turned political Rajinikanth on Tuesday approved the statement of fellow actor Kamal Haasan that the two could unite politically for the benefit of Tamil Nadu.

"Rajini and I will travel together if the development of Tamil Nadu is necessary," Haasan told reporters on Tuesday, according to NDTV. “If it is necessary to travel together, we will say so. Now, work is important. We can talk about our policies later. We are together for 43 years, joining together is not a miracle. "Rajinikanth affirmed Haasan's position while talking to reporters at Chennai airport. The superstar, who was traveling to Goa, said:" If the situation demands it and it is necessary that Let us proceed together in politics in the interest of the people, we will go ahead and travel together. When the need arises, we will join as a team. ”

Haasan's party, Makkal Needhi Maiam, won 5% of the votes in the elections of Lok Sabha in Tamil Nadu held six months ago, but did not win a single seat. Rajinikanth has not yet launched his political party.

Earlier this month, Rajinikanth had claimed that attempts to "saffron" him would not succeed. He added that he will not join the Bharatiya Janata Party before the 2021 Assembly elections in Tamil Nadu. Rajinikanth's statement came days after meeting BJP leader Pon Radhakrishnan.

On Sunday, Rajinikanth had said that the fact that Edappadi Palaniswami had been Tamil Nadu's chief minister for two years was a "miracle." "Two years ago, Edappadi Palaniswami would not have even dreamed of becoming the prime minister," Rajinikanth said at a concert by maestro Ilayaraja to celebrate Haasan's 60 years in movies. “And they said it wouldn't last even a few days. But, he had survived for more than two years. This is a miracle. The miracles happened yesterday. It is happening today and it could happen tomorrow. ”
