Actor-filmmaker Raghava Lawrence, who earlier announced his entry with politics and will make an alliance with Rajinikanth, has now said that he will only support Thalaivar if he stands as CM candidate. He wrote on Twitter, "To be very honest I want Thalaivar to stand as the CM candidate. When he announced his decision in Leela palace, I tweeted supporting his decisions because I didn't want to go against him but wholeheartedly I wasn't able to accept it. I think not only me but all his fans also feel the same. Even when I speak to Thalaivar about this every week, I request him to reconsider his decision. So, only if Thalaivar stands as CM candidate I'm ready to serve for him and not for others. If Thalaivar doesn't accept this, I will try my level best to convince him but if not I will just continue doing my own service."
