“He has spoken about spiritual politics of a secular character. I feel Rajinikanth meant only good,” Rahman told reporters in Chennai on Thursday.
Responding to a query on actors entering politics, he said: “They must have felt there is a need for a good leadership.”
The music maestro said anybody who joins politics should work for fulfilling the needs of the people.
