Earlier today, Superstar Rajnikanth had made an announcement that he is quitting politics and is not going to launch his political party. The decision was taken considering his health and the newly spreading variant of coronavirus, after the actor was admitted to hospital last week due to BP fluctuations.

Now, actress Kasthuri who is active on Twitter has given a strong statement on Rajnikanth's decision. She has tweeted "This was expected. This was said by myself and many others many times. If this was said earlier it could have prevented the pain of many and saved lots of years, atleast he said now, its not now, never ever".

Further her tweet read "More than losses of crores, the pain of minds is huge. People who are fearing lives and losses should not come for war. I congratulate Rajnikanth's decision. He must live a long life with good health".

கோடி பண நஷ்டத்தை விட கோடி மனக்கஷ்டம் பெரிது.
உயிருக்கும் தோல்விக்கும் பயந்தவர்கள் போருக்கு வரக்கூடாது. ரஜினி அவர்களின் முடிவுக்கு பாராட்டுக்கள்.
நீங்கள் பூரண நலத்துடன் நிம்மதியாக நீடூழி வாழவேண்டும்.
