Meanwhile last month, the actor had appeared critical of the ruling party, the AIADMK, asking people to email ministers with complaints of what he described as widespread corruption which triggered speculations about his joining the opposition DMK.
Rumors about Rajinikanth joining politics and launching his own party have been in circulation in the state since the actor's comment in May. Rajinikanth said "If God wills it, He will enter politics tomorrow". Meanwhile local BJP leaders had immediately invited him to join the party. The actor had given a cryptic reply, saying "Whatever he had to say he said and now he have nothing more to say".
