Chennai: Superstar Rajinikanth on Monday likely to announce his decision on entering politics at the meeting of Rajini Makkal Mandram (RMM) district secretaries.

In October this year, the actor hinted that his long-awaited entry to electoral politics may be delayed.

A letter attributed to him cited doctors' concern over campaigning during the pandemic and the potential impact on Rajinikanth's health.

The letter seemed to indicate the actor had been advised to restrict travel since he has a kidney condition and could be vulnerable to the COVID-19 virus.

Last week, during Home Minister Amit Shah's visit, the ruling AIADMK said that it would continue its alliance with the BJP, which has a negligible presence in the state and has been courting Rajinikanth for a long time.

However, the meeting between Shah and Rajinikanth yet to happen.

In 2017, Rajinikanth announced that he will float a party and contest in all the 234 constituencies in the assembly election.
