Rajinikanth, the Superstar of Tamil cinema will conduct a press conference at 10.30 AM today, and during this meet, he is likely to reveal details about his political entry. Interestingly, Rajinikanth will not project himself as the Chief Minister candidate in the 2021 elections, instead, he will likely suggest a name for the position of the Tamil Nadu CM.
Rajinikanth is expected to reveal the name of the future chief minister candidate after discussing with Makkal Mandram district secretaries. Even though Makkal Mandram secretaries and workers want Rajinikanth to contest in the upcoming legislative elections as the chief minister candidate, the actor is apparently not interested in it, and he wishes to become a kingmaker, rather than becoming the king.
Rajinikanth's announcement on Thursday will be quite crucial for Tamil Nadu politics, and his grand entry may destabilize the power banks of both AIDMK and DMK.
Rajinikanth's press meet details
In the initial moments of the press meet, Rajinikanth informed the media that he is conducting this meeting to give a clear picture regarding his political entry. Rajinikanth informed that it was in 1996 that people initially started talking about his possible political debut. However, giving everything in God's hand, he waited for the right time.
He revealed that he has started thinking about politics seriously, after the death of J Jayalalitha. The Superstar made it clear that the inconsistent nature of Tamil politics has played a crucial role in his political entry. As per Rajinikanth, the entire system in the country is corrupted, and he is making his political entry to correct this political system prevailing in Tamil Nadu.
Rajinikanth revealed that Tamil Nadu is a land with a rich legacy. As per Rajinikanth, several factors are disrupting the stability of this land, and he added that stringent measures should be taken to protect the dignity of Tamil Nadu. The Superstar also made it clear that his political entry is aimed at reviving Tamil Nadu.
Rajinikanth revealed that an era of political change in Tamil Nadu is happening after 54 years, as DMK and AIADMK are losing their dominance in the state.
"A strong wave, a strong movement, a strong aim should be there. I believe it will happen soon. I believe in the legacy of Tamil Nadu. When Congress dominated entire India, Tamil Nadu stood apart, and we have that history," said Rajinikanth during the speech.
