Khushboo Sundar has also opened the doors to Rajinikanth joining the BJP, saying that he would be most welcome if their ideologies match. Her remarks came shortly after the superstar decided not to launch his political party, citing health reasons. "Rajnikanth knows our Prime Minister very well and he has also been in touch with our senior BJP leaders in Delhi. So what they talk, I am not aware of it and it won't be right on my part to comment on his decision. Let him announce and then the party will take a call," she told Republic Media Network.
