Rajinikanth,
the
superstar
is
going
through
a
tough
time
after
the
distributors
of
his
recent
release
Darbar
demanded
compensation
for
their
loss.
The
movie,
which
featured
the
senior
actor
in
the
role
of
a
cop
after
a
long
gap
of
27
years,
has
not
succeeded
in
meeting
the
expectations
of
the
audiences
completely.
However,
even
in
this
tough
time,
Rajinikanth
has
yet
again
proven
that
he
is
called
a
superstar
for
a
reason.
As
per
the
latest
reports,
the
ultimate
superstar
of
Tamil
cinema
has
made
a
rare
achievement
with
Darbar,
to
the
much
excitement
of
his
fans
and
cine-goers.
Reportedly,
the
AR
Murugadoss
movie
is
the
third
consecutive
Rajinikanth
film
to
cross
the
15-Crore
mark
at
the
Chennai
box
office,
after
Petta
and
2.O.
Interestingly,
Rajinikanth
is
the
only
actor
from
Tamil
cinema
to
achieve
this
record
so
far.
Even
though
it
has
been
reported
that
Darbar
has
caused
great
loss
to
its
distributors,
the
movie
has
not
ended
up
as
a
colossal
flop
either.
According
to
the
reports,
Rajinikanth
has
reduced
his
remuneration
by
almost
50
percent
after
the
distributors
of
Darbar
demanded
compensation
for
their
loss.
Despite
being
released
in
about
4000
screens
all
over
the
world,
the
AR
Murugadoss
directorial
failed
to
meet
the
expectations
and
did
not
emerge
as
a
successful
outing.
Reportedly,
Rajinikanth
who
is
once
again
associating
with
Sun
Pictures,
the
banner
which
produced
Darbar
for
the
upcoming
Siva
directorial,
has
decided
to
charge
only
50
percent
of
his
remuneration
for
the
project.
Even
though
the
superstar
was
initially
reluctant
to
cut
down
his
fees,
he
later
obliged.
The
shooting
of
the
Siva
directorial,
which
has
been
tentatively
titled
as
Thalaivar
164
is
currently
progressing.
The
movie,
which
features
four
leading
ladies,
including
Nayanthara,
Keerthy
Suresh,
Khushboo,
and
Meena,
is
slated
to
hit
the
theatres
for
Deepavali
2020.
