Naam Tamilar Katchi vs Raghava Lawrence! What's going on?

While on one hand, Indian Superstar Rajinikanth has been celebrated, greeted by his cinematic fans, veteran artists, and political leaders on his 70th birthday, on the other hand, he has been under the scanner of the political parties on both sides of the aisle to witness the entry of the cool star into the heating sun of politics. 

Rajinikanth has been on the spotlight and the specific sets of cameras have always been surfaced on his grounds to picture the developments of the actor's entry into the politics and amidst the wishes and greetings, one of Rajinikanth's die-hard fans and actor Raghava Lawrence had, in the name of cooking perfect recipe for upholding Rajinikanth, had himself webbed into the controversies after serving the recipe of bitter one through accusing Seeman - one of the strongest critics to oppose Rajini's political entry.

Seeman, the chief of Naam Tamilar Katchi, one of the registered election parties in the state, has been cementing his policies with strong bricks to barricade Rajini's political entry by claiming that the state of Tamil Nadu must be ruled by Tamilian. Seeman has been voicing against the star in all the circumstances for the past two years and while Seeman stays far away from the political circle of Rajinikanth, he has seemingly been staying close to Kamal Haasan, the actor who holds the stardom as equal as to Rajinikanth. Seeman was one of the state political leaders to meet Kamal Haasan to carpet his political tour last year and the controversial line between Seeman and Kamal Haasan has been very thin unlike how it has been with Rajinikanth and that might have played a strong role in webbing Raghava Lawrence into the circle to accuse Seeman on his stands and comments against Rajinikanth.

Raghava Lawrence, who reserved his place in the industry particularly through horror movies like Kanchana series, was one of the faces of celebrities that stood in the middle of the Jallikattu protests that rocked the state in 2017 where he voiced, supported, and backed the protestors and adding to that, he is known for being a hardcore Rajini fan and aiding the societies that ail with poverty. Despite being Rajini-fied, this could be the first incident where Lawrence publicly backed Rajinikanth and blamed Seeman.

It was during the audio launch of 'Darbar' where Lawrence stated that he will stand against everyone who demeans Rajinikanth and he indirectly accused Seeman of his uncivilized politics and he kept his fire alive that was reflected in his address in the middle of Rajini's 70th birthday celebrations and Darbar audio launch, Lawrence made a comparison between Rajinikanth and Seeman with 'Dharma' and 'Adharma' and he expressed that the fans of superstar have pain inside their hearts on knowing the reason for criticism against Rajinikanth. By indirectly citing Seeman on opposing Rajini, Lawrence said that the good politics for people should not have jealous of anyone and must welcome whoever wishes to enter politics. He blamed Seeman on his notion of intentionally blocking Rajini's political entry. He asserted that he was ought to speak since the Adharma is on the rise and claimed that Rajinikanth is the symbol of Dharma while the politics of Seeman holds the opposite one.

While we asked about the heated developments with one of the cadres of Naam Tamilar, Idumbavanam Karthik, he said that the comments of Lawrence don't deserve to be respected and reiterated the party's stance that Tamil Nadu must be ruled by Tamilian and claimed that Rajinikanth shouldn't be having the policies of ruling the state. He stated that people like Lawrence must stay off from the path of the heated play between Rajinikanth and Seeman and asserted that Seeman's party would be defeating Rajini on political grounds and he asked Lawrence on his presence at the battlefields for supporting the people apart from Jallikattu. He accused the notion of branding Rajinikanth as a leader.

While the state political parties have been boxing each other with his name and his face, Rajinikanth remains unspoken like always and his name, his speech about the politics have been bypassing the prevailing issues in the state and stays on the top of the headlines. The political grounds of Tamil Nadu have been the host for the ruckus, uproar, heated allegations, uncertainty, and unrest that naturally rises question on the possibilities of Rajini, who commonly stays mute on the issues and never been outspoken, on how he would be attaining the success in his political innings. Keeping the critics aside, it's certain that Rajinikanth holds the key to unlock his political entry and to reveal what's he has to say.

Will he be the commentator for the game that has been played with his name and fame or will he direct the game of his own? The answer to this question lies with no other than himself, who hopes to shine more on the heated sun of politics.
