Kamal Haasan in an interview to a popular online television news channel has welcomed Superstar Rajinikanth to politics and wished him all the best in his endeavour.  As far as any advice he would give to Rajini, he has stated that it will be done personally and definitely not in public.

The anchor said to Kamal that if he and Rajini would combine in politics its impact would be lika a tsunami and asked him if he had an idea of doing it.  The Ulaganaygan said that he is open to working with Rajini if their manifestos are in agreement or even if not they could work out a plan to build a nation together.  However he stated that he is wary of the fact that both his and his arch professional rival's fans would want them to be on the opposite sides just like how they enjoyed their rivalry in cinema for forty years.
