In an interview to a TV channel Jaya endorsed Pawar saying that he is mature and sincere. However AIADMK chief was cautious about giving similar nod to Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati.

However Jayalalithaa also mentioned Pawar should not take her support for granted and she was keeping her post-poll options open.
