"I am in no position to take a decision regarding politics. My priority is acting and I have no immediate political plans," Vijay said on Sunday.

The actor, who called a press conference to clarify his position as the media predicted that he would join the Congress soon, said, "It is true that I met Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi. I was amazed by his dignified approach and he made kind enquiries about my film life."

Vijay, who said that he discussed with Rahul the work of his 'People's Movement' and Tamil Nadu politics, however denied to elaborate further saying that it would not be appropriate to disclose details of the discussion.

On the criticism he faced from Tamil organisations for meeting Rahul, as they hold the Congress responsible for the sufferings of Tamils in Sri Lanka, Vijay said, "I won't be a mute spectator to the sufferings of Tamils. I will join hands in future with a government that works for the welfare of the Tamils."

When asked to compare Congress and DMK, the actor refused to answer the question saying that he lacked the experience. He was assisted by his father, producer-director S A Chandrasekar.
