Arul Vadivel, the attorney, said the commission posed Rajinikanth 15 inquiries over his assertion, and the entertainer presented his reactions a month prior. 

“In his answer, he says that he just said something. He has no verification, no archives, and no recordings. He has nothing accessible,” said Vadivel. “We need some more explanations from Rajinikanth. However, we will request that he show up later. We don’t need him to come currently because of the pandemic circumstance.”
