After much zeal and euphoria, Narendra Modi finally called on Rajinikanth yesterday (April 13th) in his residence. As the entire national media are trying to read between the lines in what they consider to be a game changer for BJP in TN politics, both of them brushed aside the rumors. They said the meeting has nothing to do with politics and it’s a just courtesy call ahead of Tamil New Year’s day.
“We are good friends. This was a courtesy call. When I was unwell, Modi ji wished me well. We wish him well in the elections,” said the Superstar. Narendra Modi wished everyone Happy Tamil New Year. The duo hugged each other before Modi left for the election rally. Aishwarya R Dhanush, the daughter of Rajinikanth tweeted on her official account, “@narendramodi was lovely having you over uncle 🙂 was our pleasure!.” The picture which Modi shared on his official Facebook and Twitter accounts went viral and likely to beat all records for the number of likes and shares for a picture in India.
