Interestingly, Bollywood actor Shatrughan Sinha also spoke about Rajinikanth during his recent conversation with Times Of India. “There is no superstar bigger than Rajinikanth in this land. Miraculously he has managed to stay grounded, humble and very close to his roots. He can afford the best cars, and clothes that money can buy. But Rajini prefers to live frugally. He is a saint by nature,” Sinha asserted.
Coming to the professional front, the 72-year-old actor will be next seen in filmmaker Nelson's Jailer, an action-comedy drama slated to release on April 14, 2023.
