In last scene in trailer, he refuses to believe that it is 2016, when he is shown Rajinikanth’s speech on TV, where ‘Petta’ star is saying that he will enter politics. character says that it is 1996, a reference to how Superstar h caused Jayalalitha’s defeat in 1996 Tamil Nu elections with his statements. 

As per reports, Murali Appas, who is Public Relations representative for Kamal Haasan’s party Makkal Needhi Maiam, said that actor immediately called producer. He told producer that he couldn’t see joke on Rajikanth’s political foray, while asking it was out of friendship or voice of justice.
