To young Mimoh Saxena

Rajnis personal life: He used to flirt around with all actresses including yesteryears heronies, he once tried to corner Latha a former sweetheart of MGR..evergreen superstar and former CM of TN. MGR was earlier annoyed with the self appreciative publicity and B grade movies from Rajni declaring his flops as hits (Lies about his great career has successfully carried in the internet days and the kt imparted on by all modern idiotic bling generation though google) spoiling Tamil movie culture as a whole.

MGR caught Rajni in madras airport, tied him up in the tree for a day and beat him with chappals, and finally admitted him in Kilpauk Mental Hospital - from then on he was called Mental. it was published in all leading news journals during the early 80's.

Rajni was finally pardoned by MGR on request from Balachander, and from then on he became a disciple of Ragavendra. Until Velaikkaran was released he neither had a great fan following nor he was the most sought out actor in TN. It was Kamal's market through out the time with only B Graders involved in watching Rajnis movies. Kamal dismantled all his fan clubs citing, they were wastage of time and he did not want youth to be spoiled by hero worship..all these jobless idiots were welcomed by Rajni in his fan club and superstar was born.

part 2:
Rajni fans used to keep cut out and banners and worship this guy with milk. Rajni on his part cleverly played to their tunes, cashed on their money, creating an illusion he would enter politics one day.

Now the so called guys who pasted cutouts and banners are banging their head with his precious time and youth wasted on this actor.

The next generation has already come up who do the same in the net for their next round of hero worshipping

My personal intake Rajni has matured as a great human being after a turbulent past, he is always modest inspite of his great success. My point every celebrity Kamal or Rajni has a bad past and no one is an exception...

however his ability to capture mass, in fact nowadays very much class too, is something admirable.I was an anti Rajni till sometime back.later i realised why should i ? his films & style are surely worth a watch.if we can appreciate big fictions from hollywood,why not a humble effort in a most entertaining manner...his personal life, well..he should be worried..not anyone of us...doing reaserch on people personal life would not get us any doctorate degree...

Rajni was also into drugs and once ran away to the Himalayas...like u said only after Sri Raghavendra his life turned...surprisingly it was his best role ever without his usual style & histrionics

But Atleast whatever turbulent past, struggles in professional and personal life both Rajni and Kamal have gone through, their lives are always transparent...

They only act before the cameras not in real life and deservedly the two best paid actors in India.

Compare it with filthy bollywood stars starting from AB...to current crop...

Ridiculous... MGR bashing up Rajini. Well.. you perhaps are hallucinating or you are writing something out of a MGR film. The reason why MGR followers created that illusion is simply because Rajini never eulogized MGR in any movie nor any forum. He made it big on his own and now arguably he is the greatest star from the tamil film industry. So lets not dig others personal affairs and add crap. People who do perhaps should look back and see how dirty their butt is.. and talking good is fine. but talking good about one to degrade other is cheap. So lets stop spreading rumours and talk sense..

This is true I heard this from reliable sources in Chennai. I heard that he was tied to a tree in MGR's Poe's Garden residence and beaten black and blue.
Its also true that he had his nervous breakdown soon after on the sets of Kaali while shooting the climax

Dont write as you wish, Rajini health gone down due to day and night in three in languages tamil,telgu and kannada for that he use to travel in and abroad india like pria etc, it was jealous of MGR due to growing popularity of rajinikanth it made friction between him and MGR , Rajini never followed any one he has made his own path ,if you watch closely from his initial stage u can get,truth media knows

You're one of the plastic brigade I mentioned in this post, better give your opinions in some Rajnikanth fan forums, there would be people to lap it up and cover up the truth - with internet invented stories to cover up Rajni's shady start...I've grown up watching Rajni and Kamal or anyone over 35-36 years of age grown in the midst can tell you the fact...Only after Sri Raghavendra although it was a finanacial disaster family audience turned up in theaters to watch his move. Before that he was a entertainer for Bgrade audiences. There was nothing for MGR or anyone else to be jealous of a B grade hero.

He flirted with latha and got bashed by MGR. He reinvented himself after his affiliation first with hare rama hare krishna and then with Sri Raghavendra

Hey dude.. Flirting with Latha is the main cause of all the issue.. For the fact, Latha was also interested in Rajini those times.. But the thing is, MGR was not saving Latha.. But he was just maintaining his grip on Latha that time.. If a old man have that much interest in women, why cant young Rajini???

Who said Rajini is B grade hero?? Even his movies, he used to act in normal villian roles alone..

I hope the B-grade u mention is not Village audience.. Its infact Kamal who acted in B grade movies("A" movies) in his initial stages of his career and not Rajini!!

Rajni WAS A B Grade Hero prior to Sri Raghavendra release..He gradually gained the status of a Superstar only around 89.

Even the actress was courting Rajni thats a different argument altogether, but Rajni as any other cinema guy did every other despicable thing to promote his movies and telling the world his box office disasters as hits even in a limited media back then in 80's. Its the benchmark set for the likes of Vijay and Simbu to take it from him.

The point RAJNI IS NOT A BUDDHA BY BIRTH AND TALES LIKE A 200 YEAR OLD HERMIT FIGURING THE LIGHT IN 5 year OLD RAJNI WERE ALL CREATED by his second generation fans that grew up in late 80's and early 90's. Unfortunately these guys have the literacy level of creating websites and have managed to publish that.
