On his birthday on December 12, we break down the magic of Thalaiva. What makes him so appealing to people of all ages? His films not only are a hit in the Southern part of India but are massively followed in other parts of the country as well.
Thalaiva’s filmography reflects his great decision-making skills, as the actor has time and again dipped himself in both entertaining and culture-defining cinema.
From his tailored suits to sunglasses, Rajinikanth’s style has not only evolved and stayed in tune with time, but also speaks to his fans. His versatile fashion game on screen always resonates with people.
Think family dramas in Tamil cinema and you get transported to the world of Rajinikanth films. Be it 'Enthiran', 'Padaiyappa', 'Sivaji', 'Mannan' or 'Padikathavan', Thalaiva hits it out of the park with family dramas that reflect the mood of the Indian society.
It’s what he brings to the table as an actor and performer that differentiates him from his peers. He plays a common man with as much ease as a don or a negative character.
We love you Rajinikanth!
