Calling it the biggest news of the year, Anupam Kher wrote, "On the last day of 2017 comes the biggest news maker of the Year: Rajinikanth joins politics. Jai Ho."

Anybody who thinks can make a difference to the ideas and has an ideology, aspires for harmonious India, feels the pain of losing secularism to communalism and dreams of a democratic India, should come to politics. "We know that Mr Rajnikanth believes in inclusive democracy and development. We wish him all the best in his endeavours."
