* KSR had the oppurtunity to spend a few days with thalaivar in Bangalore. They were freely roaming in the streets of Bangalore interacting with the public. Thalaivar in disguise of course.
* Suresh Krishna was working under KB sir on 'Ek Duje Keliye' when he met Rajini for the first time. The first thing Rajini said to him was - "Kamal oru periya talent, make sure his talent reaches everywhere. Padam hit aaganum".
* During Veera Rajini will be seen with a thundu in his mouth in many scenes because he could not hide his laughter when Senthil was performing / saying dialogues. Mannan, unnaviratham scene is a classic example.
*
The most important of all, "naan eppO varuvEn epdi varuvEn" dialogue from Muthu was written by KSR and Rajini refused to mouth that initially. KSR wanted Rajini to take the plunge and thats why he wrote such lines in that film. Vairamuthu had earlier confirmed that 'endha katchi namma katchi' was not liked by Rajini but they forced him to include that. So the statement, Rajini exploiting his fans by showing *politics* interest is FALSE. :clap: :thumbsup:
