Though the meeting earlier this week between Tamil Nadu's No.1 entertainment icon Rajnikanath and Narendra Modi, the man who is expected to be the prime minister by many of his admirers, was described as completely apolitical , there's more of that social bonding between the two coming up .

One learns from sources close to Rajnikanth's new film Kochadaiyaan that a special screening of the film would be held for Mr Modi .

Says the source, `Not many people know this. But Narendra Modiji loves masala movies, though he doesn't get to see many. But Rajnikanth is his favourite and he apparently expressed a wish to see Kochadaiyaan.Rajni Sir immediately asked his team to get into action.`


Apparently the show would be held in Ahmedabad at Mr Modi's convenience. While Rajnikanth won't be attending personally his daughter Soundarya who has directed Kochadaiyaan is expected to attend Mr Modi's screening in Gujarat.

In the meanwhile plans for lavish premiere of Kochadaiyaan in Chennai have been dropped.

According to sources there would only be a premiere in Mumbai on 8 May and none at all in Chennai.

The turn-out in Mumbai's premiere is expected to be hugely impressive.
