I have to admit, I was no big Rajni fan till about a couple of months ago. I also admit that I haven't seen any of his movies in the cinemas till date. Whatever I have watched is on the small screen; on cable. Caught Sivaji too a month or so back.
While I liked him for all that I used to keep reading on & off about him, I never really understood the mass hysteria... (
still don't as much..) I also remember having come across a newspaper space about him which I'd found hilarious then & I'd taken a pic from my phone. Never uploaded & forwarded it coz I thought it was amusing enough but not that good that I'd forward it. You see, I didn't understand his stature so well then. :P
Robot changed things.
[Err.. I haven't seen that too yet...I'm going going!!] Suddenly, I started receiving sms'es about him since some time back. First I thought they were again a passing phase of the crazy things under his name, but I admit after the first 3 days, I actually looked forward to the messages on the 4th day. [that is when I decided to watch Sivaji on cable too :P] It actually grew on me. Now since I got interested in him, I obviously discovered more.
His simplicity, his philantrophy, his genuineness, his groundedness & most importantly, he as a father. [When a child talks about a parent in glowing terms, its THE biggest indicator for the kind of parent someone is.]
Coming back to the topic that actually made me go under his spell, are the impossible [Ohhh..
Possibly Only Rajnikanth! :P ] kind of sms'es I keep getting about him [I won't call them funny..coz maybe they're true!! ;) :P]
Putting up that not so clear image I have with me.. I am writing down that trivia about him for better reading too. Also, I've added a few of mine taking the total count to 50. I'm sure they're lots more..but I've mentioned my very fav ones that I haven't deleted from my phone from all these days. I'm sure it'll make better reading here!
