Sorry for the wait, will decide on Dec 31: Rajini

Chennai: Tamil superstar Rajinikanth has decided to keep his millions of fans in Tamil Nadu guessing until December 31, when he is likely to finally reveal his political plans. Addressing his fans in Chennai on the opening day of a six-day-long photo session with followers, the 67-year-old actor said he was hesitant to enter politics since he knew its dynamics.

Rajinikanth said he was not saying he would enter politics, but would only announce his "political stance" on December 31, the last day of his six-day event. "I am not saying that I will come to politics... I will announce my stand on entering politics on December 31," he said. The actor said he was not new to politics, however, it required time to "study and strategise". "Let us face the war when it comes", he said, which was seen as an indication that he might enter politics. Referring to the statement made months ago, Rajinikanth today said, "War means only election. Has it come now?" "One has to win a war. Bravery is not enough to win the war. Strategy is needed," he said.

Rajini said more than the people, the media was interested in knowing about his political plans. He also advised his fans not to focus on the negative information being circulated in the social media. "Focus on positive thoughts," he said.
