"It's a courtesy call, not a political meeting. I came to inform him about my political tour. He wished me good luck," Haasan said after meeting.

When specifically asked if they were thinking about an alliance, Haasan said, "Only time will tell."

Rajinikanth, on his part, said, "Kamal wants to serve the people of Tamil Nadu. I pray to God that he attains success. He has not entered politics for fame or money but only to serve people of the state."

Haasan would start touring Tamil Nadu, beginning with his hometown of Ramanathapuram, on February 21. Kamal had also said that he would reveal the name of his party on the same day. He calls this tour a "journey of discovery" during which he will attempt to "understand people's needs and aspirations".

Haasan had, however, on February 11 said that his alliance with the Rajini was unlikely.

Earlier on Feb 8, Haasan had said,''Our ideologies should match for the alliance to happen.''
