# Ravi Mohan keeps door open for political entry 2026-08-24T06:14:07+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Actor Ravi Mohan has not ruled out entering politics, saying that if he develops an interest in the field, there is nothing wrong with joining it. Asked at a press meet whether he had political aspirations, following Vijay's electoral win, Mohan said good deeds can be done by anyone and do not require being a politician. He added that anyone can come into politics and do good. The actor, last seen in Parasakthi, is currently busy shooting for his directorial debut An Ordinary Man and has joined the sets of Benz, part of the Lokesh Cinematic Universe, alongside Raghava Lawrence and Nivin Pauly. His film Karathey Babu releases on August 28, and multiple other projects are in the pipeline. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Ravi Mohan is the latest in a growing line of Tamil cinema stars asked about politics after Vijay's electoral debut reshaped the landscape. Unlike Udhayanidhi Stalin, who left films to join the DMK government, or Vijay himself, who won from a party he launched, Ravi Mohan keeps the door ajar without committing. His answer signals that for actors still at peak career, with multiple releases and a directorial debut, public office is a second act, not a Plan B. The real test will come when a party offers a ticket. ## Coverage - cinemaexpress.com Straight Q&A report, no framing slant This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
