Southern Tamil Nadu and neighbouring Kerala are on high alert as cyclone Burevi inches closer to the southern shores.

Superstar Rajinikanth will launch his long-anticipated political party in January, five months before the Tamil Nadu election. Promising "a wonder and miracle" in the polls, he said his party would bring "spiritual secular politics" with no caste or religion.
