Chennai, Apr 13 (IBNS): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi met southern superstar Rajinikanth at his residence in Chennai on Sunday.

With reports of Modi meeting Rajnikanth coming to fore, the media buzz is that the superstar might campaign for him in the Lok Sabha elections.
