Rajini and Kamal Haasan the Political opponents flew in together to the national stadium in Malasyia in a chopper. One has entered politics and the other is on the verge. They may differ in opinion but they are together now.
The occasion – a grand fund-raiser featuring around 250 members, including actors, from the Tamil film industry.
It was nothing short of a casting coup; the two met for the first time since announcing their plans to enter active politics. On the last day of 2017,Rajinikanth has declared in Chennai that he would form a new political party and would contest all 234 seats in Tamil Nadu in the next assembly elections in 2021. Kamal Haasan had announced his political ambitions in November.
As the two giants of Tamil cinema alighted from the chopper, the drama was unmistakable – Rajinikanth, dressed in all black, while Kamal Hassan, in stark contrast, chose white. Interestingly, Kamal Haasan often played the hero while Rajinikanth was the anti-hero in many films that the two acted in together since the 80s.
