Rajinikanth followers stage demonstration in Chennai, urge him to vary his choice to steer clear of politics

Actor Rajinikanth’s followers gathered in giant numbers on the Valluvar Kottam in Chennai urging the actor to vary his choice of not collaborating in electoral politics. Though the Chennai City Police granted permission for a gathering of solely 200 individuals, that too just for an hour, greater than 2,000 followers have been noticed on the venue.
‘Va Thalaiva Va’ (Come chief), ‘Ipo Ilana epovum illa’ (If not now, by no means) have been among the slogans raised by the followers, who staged the demonstration from round 10 am until 12:30 pm.
The ‘Aravazhi porattam’ (peaceable protest) passed off regardless of the Rajini Makkal Mandram’s repeated warnings. The mandram excessive command requested individuals not to participate in such protests which can additional damage their chief’s emotions and stated strict motion shall be initiated in opposition to the functionaries in the event that they take pleasure in such acts.
However, below the management of N Ramadhas, a senior chief of the Rajini Makkal Mandram scores of followers began to collect within the early morning on Sunday carrying large banners and placards inviting actor Rajinikanth to hitch the political race. While among the followers arrived in two-wheelers and vehicles, particular busses have been organized to facilitate the followers from a number of districts of Tamil Nadu to reach on the venue. Songs and dialogues from Rajinikanth’s films have been performed on loop to maintain the followers on their toes.
Speaking to indianexpress.com, Ramadhas stated the demonstration was an enormous success and he hopes that their chief will certainly pay heed to their request. “The city was on its feet today. Our mission was to organise such a gathering and show our leader that we are behind him and he has nothing to fear. We care a lot about his health more than anyone else. He can stay home and do the campaign virtually. We will climb each and every doorstep and seek the vote for our Thalaivar. Let him take rest at his residence, one single tweet or a video of Thalaivar will have a global attraction. People want our Thalaivar to enter politics. Through some of our sources, we came to know that Thalaivar was happy about the protest. We hope we will receive good news by Pongal, we hope he will change his decision for the welfare of Tamil Nadu. Our vote is only for our Thalaivar and not for anyone else,” he added.
A piece of people that belong to RMM’s ladies’s wing stated solely Rajinikanth can present the federal government which can make ladies safer. “The state is in a condition where even a two-year-old toddler cannot walk freely on the streets. There is no protection for women, only a person like Rajinikanth who believes in spiritual politics can provide that. We are here for you Thalaiva, save us from the evil forces,” a fan who had arrived from Tiruppur added.
The followers added that the demonstration on the Valluvar Kottam in Chennai is simply the tip of the iceberg and they’re going to proceed to stage such gatherings throughout the state until their chief modifications his choice.
“We believe our Thalaivar will see this, listen to our demand. We need him now more than at any time. As he said, political and government change will never happen if our leader doesn’t take the political plunge. The future of Tamil Nadu is in the hands of our Thalaivar, he is the only one who can save our state,” stated Kabali Hari, who has arrived from Coimbatore.

Actor Rajinikanth on December 29 introduced that he’ll neither launch a celebration nor participate within the electoral politics owing to his ailing well being and the pandemic scenario. The announcement got here weeks after he promised that his social gathering will contest within the upcoming meeting election in Tamil Nadu and can announce the small print about this political plan quickly.
In a three-page assertion he posted on Twitter, Rajinikanth expressed remorse and stated it pained him to make such an announcement after having stated he would contest within the elections and blissful to present even his life for the individuals of Tamil Nadu. “It is with profound regret that I have to say that I will neither be launching my political party nor entering politics. Nobody can understand my pain in making this decision,” he wrote.
