Chennai: Superstar Rajinikanth's 'Rajini Makkal Mandram' on Thursday dismissed reports that a top functionary of the organisation has been sacked for alleged irregularities.
RMM Administrator V.M. Sudhakar denied that M Raju Mahalingam, the secretary of the organisation, has been "sacked." "This is contrary to truth. Nobody shall believe this," Sudhakar said in a brief statement.
Rajinikanth floated the RMM as a precursor to launching his political party. He had announced in December last year that he would join politics and contest the next polls in Tamil Nadu.
Mahalingam, a former top official of production house Lyca Productions, was appointed RMM secretary in February this year. Reports in social media earlier in the day had claimed he was sacked over some alleged financial irregularities.
