Chennai: Tamil superstar Rajinikanth said on Friday that “no force” can separate him from his fans and urged his followers to tread the path of fairness.
Referring to his communication to members of Rajini Makkal Mandram (RMM), a precursor forum to his political party, he said the content may have been “bitter” but insisted that it was the truth. “I am proud to get fans like you. No force can separate us from each other. Whichever path we may take, let it be one of fairness,” he said in a statement.
On his remarks about the RMM on Tuesday, the film star said he had detailed some facts about the forum. “Those may have been bitter but I am thankful to you for understanding the truth and fairness in that,” he said, adding that “God will be by our side”.
His statement comes in the wake of criticism from some sections, including the DMK, which had alleged that he was a puppet in the hands of “some persons” and was being supported by “communal” elements.
On Tuesday, he had said that he was committed to ushering in a change in the political horizon sans the trappings of money and lure of posts. He had also recalled his assertion last year that he will never allow those eyeing money and posts in his political innings. (PTI)
