This will be the first election of Kamal’s Party. It will be like a Litmus Test for the actor ahead of the 2019 General Elections. Superstar Rajinikanth also announced his Political Entry but did not even announce the party name. As of now, Kamal is looking more serious than Rajinikanth in Politics.
There are even reports that Rajinikanth may even merge his party in BJP and become the face of the Saffron Party in Tamil Nadu. On the other side, Kamal Hasaan has slightly Left Leaning. If at all, Kamal contests and puts up a decent performance in this election, it will setup tone for his political career going forward.
