B'day Boss: Everybody loves Rajini

Over 175 days and still going strong, the success of Rajinikant's latest release Sivaji demonstrates the superstar's power over cinegoers in Tamil Nadu. And that’s not all, it's celebration time once again for Rajinikant fans as the superstar turns 58 on Wednesday.
But, besides being a star and a mentor, people close to the cine icon say that what makes Rajinikant truly unassuming is his simple nature.

“It’s the way he behaves with people on the sets. He is punctual and honest. There's something so special about the man which cannot be described easily,” actress Nayanthara says.

While Rajinikant’s daughter Aiswarya says that he is a great friend and much more than a father. “We could sit and have a conversation with him like I can have with any of my friends.”

Agreeing with Aiswarya, his other daughter Soundarya also says that the superstar is a “great dad”.

“On his special day I would like to wish him a very happy birthday. We will be spending a good time together. It's going to be a close family evening, so I am looking forward to it,” she says.
Reverentially referred to as thalaivar in Tamil, it's not just family, his co-stars, too, are completely in awe of the actor.

“For all that he has achieved in the last so many years, he's so humble and so nice to people and you can see that in his behavior. He's the same with everybody, he doesn't differentiate nor is there any hierarchy in his life,” actor Ajith Kumar says.

In a career spanning over three decades Rajinikant has acted in over 150 films. Having started as a bus conductor in the State Transport Corporation in Bangalore, Rajini's rise to stardom is a lot like the legendary rags-to-riches stories.

Today, Rajinikant remains one of the highest paid actors in Asia and his latest blockbuster has just re-affirmed his position at the box-office.
