Chennai, Oct 26: If reports are to be believed, the 63rd birthday of Tamil superstar Kamal Haasan is going to a 'political blockbuster', literally.

Haasan, whose birthday is on November 7, is likely to formally join politics on his 'big' day, as indicated by the national-award winning actor-director himself in a column he wrote for a popular Tamil magazine on Thursday.

In the column, the Tamil superstar has promised a big announcement on his birthday, asking his fans to "get ready". The Viswaroopam actor, who in the last few months have spoken about his political debut in Tamil Nadu, wrote in the column that he would "give details of arrangements soon and will ensure that fans can coordinate" with his team and him.

"I invite with folded hands those who think it's their responsibility to serve Tamil Nadu," Haasan said. These lines in the column are enough to suggest that he is finally ready to take the political plunge.

Now, the question is will the actor float his own party or join an already established party? Political observers say that Haasan in all probability will float his own political outfit with the help of his fans and supporters.

Since July, the 62-year-old veteran actor has been maintaining that he's ready to form his own political party. In fact, last month, he said he will recruit "fresh, young faces" in his party.

For his political party, Haasan indicated that he would crowd-source funds to ensure transparency. He said all these methods of operating his party have been inspired by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) of Arvind Kejriwal. A few weeks ago, Haasan met Kejriwal in Chennai and the two had lunch together.

Now, people of Tamil Nadu are also wondering when superstar Rajinikanth would join politics, which too is long overdue.
