The whole of South India is abuzz over the rumour that director S. Shankar's forthcoming Tamil science fiction fiilm Endhiran would be super star Rajinikanth’s last film. But why? Because the actor has reportedly finally decided to enter politics!
This speculations began after Rajinikanth did not show any interest in a sequel to the blockbuster Chandiramukhi when he was approached by director P. Vasu. Rajinikanth reportedly replied: "We’ll look into it after the release of Endhiran," sources said. Moreover, the superstar’s elder brother Sathya Narayana Rao has openly stated that the actor would probably make his entry into politics after Endhiran.
For the last few weeks, Shankar has been busy shooting the climax scenes of Endhiran, starring Aishwarya Rai as heroine. Some parts of the climax were shot at the SIPCOT industrial estate in Sirucheri.
The makers will soon move to Prasad Studio, where a huge set has been put up to shoot a fight scene which will be picturised as the whole set will go up in flames.

Prakashraj Aspire for Hollywood role
National award winner Prakashraj came down hard on critics who had said that Shahrukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Sathyaraj deserved the National award more. "Maybe I was a little lucky and Kanchivaram had more content," said Prakashraj.
The actor said he considered himself lucky when he received the blessings of Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi and 'Iyakunar Sigaram' K. Balachander. Kalaignar's smart remark was that he had two reasons for remembering Kanchivaram – one for Anna (C.N. Annadurai) and the other for the movie's title.
What are his next goals after the National award, the media asked? Prakashraj said he would like to act in a Hollywood film and also direct a movie.
Taking a dig at Kollywood, Prakashraj said that nothing is permanent in the industry. “The artiste is forgotten the very moment when the baton of the National award changes hands. I am proud that a Tamil film has won this recognition after so many years. Once Kanchivaram makes its way to various international festivals, the country's flag will go up,” said Prakashraj with justified pride.
Of his production venture, Prakashraj said Inidhu Inidhu, remake of the Telugu hit Happy Days, will feature newcomers. “I will provide the platform for the aspirants and the onus is on them to take centre stage,” Prakashraj signed off with his trademark smile.

Rahul : Rajinikanth most welcome to join Congress
In the midst of strong speculations over the possibilities of Tamil super star Rajinikanth’s political entry soon after the release of his ongoing science fiction film Endhiran, Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi on Thursday welcomed the superstar to join the Congress. "He is most welcome to come. We will not put any roadblocks," Gandhi told reporters during his visit to Chennai.
“Our system is open to anybody who wants to enter it as long as the person is not a criminal. The only barrier we put is the barrier of criminality. I do not think Rajinikanth is a criminal," said Rahul, whose visit to Tamil Nadu is seen as an effort to rejuvenate the party apparatus in the state and woo the youth.
Rajinikanth has not yet revealed his mind on his political inclinations but his fans want him to float a party. Though he has kept off politics, he has had meetings with top national leaders early this year, including BJP leader L.K. Advani.
On reports about popular Tamil actor Vijay evincing interest in joining the Congress, Gandhi reacted, "When we started this open system process, Vijay expressed interest in understanding our process and we explained our process to him."
