On December 31, 2017, Rajinikanth had announced his plans to float a political party and follow spiritual politics.

On the work front, Varma just finished working with American porn star Mia Malkova for "God, Sex and Truth" for which he was even booked for obscenity on a complaint by a social activist in January.

A case under section 67 of the Information Technology Act, 2000 was booked against him for publishing or transmitting obscene material in electronic form.
