Actor Rajinikanth on Thursday indicated that he was holding discussions regarding his entry into politics but has not yet made up his mind.

Speaking to reporters at the Chennai airport, the actor, who has kept the people of the State guessing about his political entry for at least two decades now, said: “I’m not denying that I am holding discussions. We are talking. But I have not decided anything yet.”

He was responding to a question that leaders who had met him told the press that it was only a courtesy meeting and not political. “But you are denying that these meetings are not political”, a reporter asked to which the actor said “I have not denied it. I have not said anything like that.”

The actor further said: “If the situation arises that I enter politics, I will call all of you and inform you about it,” he said, leaving for Mumbai for a five-day shooting schedule of his upcoming film Kaala .
