Once
again
Rajinikanth,
the
superstar
of
Indian
cinema,
proved
his
simplicity
through
his
straight
forward
speech
at
Endhiran
music
launch
function
held
in
KL,
Malaysia.
PICC
(putrajaya
Internationl
Conventional
Center),
the
venue
of
music
launch
was
jampacked
on
Saturday
and
thousands
of
Rajini
fans
were
eagerly
waiting
to
hear
their
matinee
idol's
speech.
After
the
audio
launch,
Rajinikanth
ascended
the
stage
and
as
expected,
the
auditorium
exploded
in
applause
and
one
could
almost
touch
the
anticipation
and
excitement
that
spread
through
the
hall.
Rajini
started
his
speech
with
the
world
famous
slogan
(Thanks
to
Rahman)
'Ella
pugazhum
Iravanukke....'
Says
Rajini,
"There
are
four
important
pillars
which
are
crucial
role
in
this
film.
Shankar,
Sun
Pictures
Kalanidhi
Maran,
Aishwarya
Bachchan
and
Rathnavelu.
This
film
will
create
history
in
the
Indian
cinema.
I'm
not
saying
this
just
because
its
a
big
budget
or
Shankar-Aishwarya-Kalanidhi
Maaran-Rajinikanth
combination.
This
is
the
first
scientific
movie
made
with
Hollywood
standards
in
India.
First
of
its
kind.
Thats
why
I'm
saying
this
with
confident."
"When
I
signed
Sivaji,
I
asked
Kamal
(Hassan)
what
kind
of
a
maker
Shankar
was.
He
told
me
he
is
a
very
intelligent
man,
but
a
very
demanding
man
as
well.
And
now,
before
Sun
Pictures
came
on
board,
I
told
Mr.
Kalanidhi
Maran
that
Shankar
is
a
like
a
wild
race
horse
–
he
will
surely
reach
to
the
destination,
but
we
must
hang
on
tight
to
keep
up
with
him.
I'm
sure
that
Shankar
is
a
true
visionary
and
would
direct
a
fabulous
Hollywood
movie
soon..."
Talking
about
A.R.
Rahman,
the
superstar
said,
"For
me
Rahman
is
a
real
yogi.
There
are
three
important
aspects
that
differentiate
a
normal
man
from
a
yogi.
A
true
yogi
has
no
ego.
He
is
one
who
follows
the
path
of
love.
Above
all,
he
surrenders
himself
unto
God
by
putting
Him
before
all
else
–
success,
power,
money.
Considering
these
things,
AR
Rahman
is
a
yogi.
He
has
all
these
three
qualities
that
spiritual
gurus
say
make
a
yogi.
He's
a
proof
that
you
don't
have
to
go
to
the
Himalayas
to
find
yogis.
We,
Tamils
are
very
proud
to
have
such
a
personality
at
our
time!"
Rajini
went
on
to
say
that
Aishwarya
Rai
is
no
ordinary
lady.
She
is
a
mixture
of
beauty
and
brains.
"She
is
the
most
beautiful
Miss
World
of
our
times.
Even
in
a
scene
in
the
movie
where
she
wore
hardly
any
make
up,
she
looked
stunning!
She's
the
kind
of
woman
who
is
charming
in
every
way," he
added.
He
also
comically
mentioned
that
when
he
played
romantic
scenes
with
Ash,
he
was
aware
that
her
father
in
law
Amitabh
would
warn
him
like
'Rajini
gabardhar!'.
Coming
to
the
unconditional
affection
of
his
fans
for
him,
Rajini
humbly
said
they
treat
him
like
a
baby.
"Parents
dress
their
child
in
fancy
clothes
and
rejoice
when
they
see
that
child
sing
and
dance.
Similarly,
you
all
dress
me
up
in
different
get-ups,
make
me
look
younger,
ask
me
to
dance
and
sing,
and
praise
and
applaud
me
when
I
do
that.
It's
all
your
doing.
I
do
nothing,"
he
quipped.
At
the
end
of
his
speech,
like
the
true
philosopher
and
spiritualist
he
said,
the
super
star
insisted
the
happiness
and
the
success
because
it
is
not
permanent.
"Sometimes
you
will
have
to
come
down
before
you
achieve
something
which
will
take
you
to
the
top.
If
you
succeed
once
and
think
you're
successful,
you
would
be
in
for
a
rude
shock.
Ups
and
downs
in
life
are
inevitable.
Learn
to
accept
both
and
move
on,"
he
said
and
returned
to
his
seat
amidst
thundering
applause."
