Smita Tambe, Marathi actress said, “Since Rajinikanth has massive fan following hence he has basic platform ready to launch his outfit. People have provided an opportunity to Rajinikanth to work for the welfare of masses. In case he goes on to become Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu then he should utilise that opportunity to work for the development of the state.”
Tamil Selvan, Sion BJP MLA said, “It’s up to Rajinikanth about how he goes about mobilising people’s support for the development of his party. He won’t contest the panchayat and municipality election and will directly contest all the 234 legislative assembly seats in Tamil Nadu. AIADMK has become weak after J Jayalalithaa’s demise.
Vinayak Raut, Shiv Sena MP said, “Right now Tamil Nadu politics is in a state of turmoil after J Jayalalithaa so according to me Rajinikanth might prove to be an able leader who can take the state forward. Since Rajinikanth has just entered politics he will soon spell out his agenda before the people.”
Dilip Gandhi, BJP MP said, “The politics of Tamil Nadu is different as it is personality driven instead of ideology. According to me Rajinikanth may take steps to cleanse corruption from the society.”
Veteran actor, Ashok Saraf said, “I can’t comment anything about politics. Let’s wait and watch the developments after Rajinikanth’s entry into politics. He must definitely go ahead with his political career and work for the welfare of people. I wish him all success in politics.”
