Rajinikanth: Will join politics if God wills it

Yesterday, Rajinikanth met 700 fans at a meet-and-greet event in Chennai. Since they were keen to know about his political aspirations, the South icon said he would consider joining politics if that's what God wills. The Thalaiva said, "God decides what we have to do in life. Right now, he wants me to be an actor and I am fulfilling my responsibility.

If God wills it, I will enter politics tomorrow." He added, "If I enter politics, I will be truthful and not work with people who are in it to make money." He termed his brush with politics 20 years ago "an accident." In 1996, he had supported a DMK-led alliance in Tamil Nadu.
