Chennai: Even as Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan are working on their respective political plans, S Gurumurthy, Editor of Thuglak magazine, said Kamal's ideology matches with the Dravidian politics, while that of Rajinikanth's is inclined towards the BJP.
At Thuglak's 48th annual readers' meet on Sunday, Gurumurthy said: "Kamal Haasan's speech makes one think that his ideology is akin to the Dravidian ideology. He cannot be a change to the corrupt Dravidian parties... If there is a situation where BJP and Rajnikanth can work together, say, there is Narendra Modi photo on one side and Rajinikanth photo on the other then we need not worry about the future of Tamil Nadu."
On November 5 last year, at a function of mark the 39th anniversary of his fan and welfare club, Kamal Hassan said he will surely start a party and enter politics. A month later, Rajinikanth, on December 31, announced his entry into politics.
In an interview to CNN-News18's Zakka Jacob, Kamal Haasan while identifying himself as a "rationalist" said Rajinikanth is a "suitable ally" of the BJP.
"He seems like a more suitable ally for the saffron party because of his religious beliefs, while I am a rationalist," said Haasan.
Rajinikanth, while announcing his entry into politics, said he wants to usher in spiritual politics.
"We have to create a spiritual politics with no caste and religion barrier. My cornerstones would be honesty, transparency, secularity and spiritual politics. Spiritual politics according to me means fair and just politics," he said announcing his entry into politics.
Both the stars are working on the blueprint of the party that they are set to launch. They are reaching out to people through apps and websites, trying to garner support of the voters.
With people wondering if it is possible for the two actors to join hands, Kamal, in his weekly column in a regional magazine, said that he won't antagonise friends.
"People ask me if I will make my friends as enemies in this (political) journey. I won't make my friends my enemies & do that blame game politics to withstand & get a place in politics. That won't be my way and even people won't like that," he wrote in the magazine.
