BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, clad in 'veshti' (dhoti), met superstar Rajnikanth at his residence Sunday evening.
Modi was here to address an election rally.
The buzz is that Mr Modi could seek the actor's endorsement for the Lok Sabha polls.
This will be Mr Modi's second election campaign in Chennai for the parliamentary polls.
Opinion polls have projected that the BJP will not fare well in Tamil Nadu.
Over the next week, top BJP leaders including Mr Modi, LK Advani and Rajnath Singh have scheduled a blitzkrieg of sorts in Tamil Nadu in a bid to better the party's prospects.
"We are good friends. This was a courtesy call. When I was unwell, Modi ji wished me well. We wish him well in the elections," Rajinikanth said after meeting Mr Modi.
"We all know he is a strong leader," said the superstar.
The Gujarat chief minister responded, "I wish you all a happy Tamil New Year's Day".
