rsubras, agree that rajini himself has agreed that he is many steps below kamal, in terms of acting talent and even other talent. But same time thats not the only thing rajini has openly expressed. there is more to it. in fact there is more to everything what both kamal and rajini does! what u see is just a outer most top layer which is the only layer visible for normal eyes. if u look deeply there are multiple things visible! but they are only for the keen eyes! iam glad to explain to the interested parties!
