Rajini creates a new unbreakable record!
Rajinikanth is an icon of Indian cinema no doubt. The Superstar, who has been in the film industry for nearly four decades now, has created a new record that no other actor in this world has done.
Yes, he made his debut in a black-and-white film, then was seen in colour, Sivaji in 3D and now animation movie Kochadaiyaan. This is a very difficult record to break indeed!
President Pranab Mukherjee was the chief guest at the final day of the celebration of centenary year of Indian cinema in Chennai.
In his valedictory address at the centenary celebrations, co-hosted by the Tamil Nadu Government and the South Indian Film Chamber of Commerce, the President said that while he would not advocate a dilution of cinema’s mandate to mirror reality, filmmakers should also use the medium to convey the "right type of message in the right manner."
The auditorium at Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium was packed to the rafters with an audience of more than 5,000 as India`s biggest stars made their way into the venue. Sridevi walked in first to thunderous applause and was followed by Bachchan and then Rekha. But the crowd reserved the loudest cheers for Kamal Hassan, Ajith and Vijay, and went berserk when superstar Rajinikanth made a quick entry.
Mukherjee honoured with medals 40 legends of Indian cinema, including Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa, Amitabh Bachchan, Sridevi, Vyjayanthimala Bali, K Balachander, Adoor Gopalakrishnan, M S Viswanathan, Rekha, Javed Akhtar, Madhu, Mammootty and Mohanlal.
No awards for RK/KH ? :shock:
When Sridevi spat on Rajinikanth!
He might have missed the trailer launch of Ninaithale Inikkum, but Rajinikanth made up for it by turning up for the trailer launch of the 1977 film 16 Vayathinile, in which he shared screen space with Kamal Haasan.
The Superstar went on a nostalgic trip when talking at the event. "During the shoot, no one would talk to me, as I was a relative newcomer. It was Kamal, to whom the production people went, to have a chat," he said. Praising the film's producer Rajkannu, he said, "When Rajkannu met me about re-releasing 16 Vayathinile a few months back, he told me that we should give away the collections to Kamal, who was at that time having difficulties in releasing Vishwaroopam. It is difficult to find such persons in our film industry."
Kamal, meanwhile, spoke on how the film had to overcome a number of odds to get released. "The majority of comments that we got when making the film was that it would flop. In fact, when I was driving from the studio, a person riding a bike came up to me and said that the film will tank," he said. On the difficulties the crew faced during production, he said, "When we shot the scene of Mayilu running in slow motion, we did not have the budget to afford a camera that could shoot slow motion scenes. So, Sridevi literally ran in slow motion."
Talking about his relationship with Rajinikanth, Kamal said that it was remarkable that their friendship has withstood the test of time despite several people trying to drive a wedge between the two. Director Bharathirajaa revealed that Rajini told Sridevi to spit on him for real in the scene in which Mayilu spits on the face of Parattai. "It was taking several takes to shoot the scene and finally, Rajini went to Sridevi and told her to go ahead and spit for real. Such was his dedication," he remarked.

Rajanikanth may miss 44th IFFI inauguration on health issues - Press Trust of India
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=azoucphBJnU
Arguably the "Best" ever opening song for SS, despite Deva's "Originality" factor :lol2:
what a mokkai thread this has turned out to be :cry2:
In Rajini's 100 yr. speech he says :
'cinemavilla thothu ponavanga vazhkailla jaichanga, cinemalla jaichavanga vazhkailla thothutanga'
chinna doubt - Was he actually referring to himself or someone else on the second part ?
Rajinikanth is the true superstar of India
It's not easy to track down Paresh Rawal as this veteran doesn't believe in tom-toming about his achievements and likes to let his work do all the talking. The actor was in the city for his play Dear Father, an emotional thriller.
......
......
The actor is all praise for Rajinikanth too. According to him, "He is the true superstar of India. Even in Chennai Express, Shah Rukh Khan had to take his support." That's saying a lot about the Superstar. The king of situational comedy has a very natural repertoire.

Thaliavaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.. oru padam direct panna chumma gujalava irrukum !!

padamey varathathukku.... intha mathiri ethavathu parthaa thaan undu....Just came across in twitter search.
Looks like it ! But who cares shivji , our man is in hibernation mode . Hope he is doing good as far as his health is concerned. Just keeping the thread rolling so that our dear english durais don't complain about , we are not serving english tea or nice cracker to go with it in this thread.
Dasall
It is Clint eastwood style! I mean the beard and hair style
Forget Superman, Batman, and Spiderman or for that matter Krrish and G.One, there's one superhero that beats them all!
In India, Hrithik and Shahrukh Khan have played superheroes on the silver screen and now many other actors like Ranbir Kapoor apparently want to follow suit. While SRK as G.One in Ra.One had little fans jumping with joy, Hrithik as Krrish drove them in a frenzy in both Krrish and Krrish 3, but one name surpasses them-Rajnikanth!
