Rajinikanth's career in electoral politics never took off for many reasons. He had to unceremoniously withdraw his plans to float his own political outfit due to ill health. However, he remains an influential figure in politics due to his proximity to powerful leaders.
On the career front, Rajinikanth is now on a break after completing the shoot of Vettaiyan. Written and directed by TJ Gnanavel, the film is bankrolled by Lyca Productions. The cop drama is now in post-production and is set to hit the screens on October 10.
In July, Rajinikanth will join the sets of director Lokesh Kanagaraj's Coolie.
