Superstar, who recently arrived at the Mangalore International Airport for an important schedule of Lingaa, was received by Kannada reporters with a flurry of questions. When a reporter asked about his entry into politics, he said “I will, if God wishes so.” The reporter retorted back with a “What’s your wish?”, Rajinikanth, in his quintessential style, said “God’s wish is my wish.”
