When
the
first
time
fans
and
movie
goers
were
made
known
that
South
India's
biggest
Superstar
will
portray
himself
as
an
aged
person
in
his
upcoming
movie
Kabali,
there
were
mixed
responses
and
reactions.
While
some
said
Rajinikanth's
bold
decision
came
at
just
the
right
time,
few
others
expressed
their
anxiety,
fearing
that
their
favourite
star
might
not
run
around
trees,
chasing
young
girls
anymore.
It's
not
that
Rajinikanth
has
not
portrayed
such
a
character
on-screen
before,
but
this
time
around,
situations
have
changed
some.
With
back
to
back
box
office
failures,
the
king
of
Tamil
cinema
had
to
do
something
different
which
gave
rise
to
Kabali.
Not
long
ago,
many
might've
thought
that
the
Enthiran
star
might
not
star
in
a
non-commercial
flick.
But
his
decision
to
join
hands
with
Pa
Ranjith
(a
director
who
says
he
doesn't
know
to
direct
a
commercial
film)
raised
a
few
eyebrows
alright.
This
particular
choice
of
movie
and
the
way
Rajinikanth
is
about
to
get
showcased
in
Kabali
might
have
a
deeper
meaning
to
it.
Has
the
Superstar
decided
to
deviate
from
his
usual
norms
to
do
variety
of
roles?
Will
he
be
seen
in
character
roles
post
Enthiran
2?
Perhaps,
that
might
be
the
idea.
