If Rajinikanth enters politics, I will join hands with him, says Kamal Haasan

Speaking on the speculations of him joining politics, the veteran actor Kamal Haasan on Friday said that he will not enter politics in haste.

On the question of whether he will join hands with Rajinikanth in politics, Kamal said if Rajini enters politics, he will join hands with him.

"I will not enter politics in haste. If Rajini enters politics I'll join hands with him," said Kamal Haasan.

Earlier, Kamal said that his colour is “definitely not saffron”.

Haasan’s statement after a meeting with Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan comes days after he told his fans to be prepared to march to Fort St George in Chennai, the seat of the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly, to ensure that corrupt politicians are not re-elected in the state.  

When asked about his political affiliation, the actor said he had been in the film industry for 40 years, but “I can tell you one thing, my colour is definitely not saffron”.

“Most of the leftists are my heroes. I want to be in the middle of things and not take sides,” he said.
