Actor Vijay gets Superstar title!

Films using Superstar Rajinikanth’s blockbuster titles are becoming commonplace now, but an upcoming Kannada film has chosen to keep the Superstar’s name itself as the title. Kannada hero Vijay’s latest film will be called ‘Rajinikanth – The Superstar’.

While one imagines this to be a biopic of sorts since Rajini spent many years in Karnataka, the makers are quick to deny that. They say that the hero’s name in the movie is Kanth while the heroine, played by Anita Rao, is called Rajini and hence the title.
The producer of the film, Prassad, finds the title sentimental as his parents too have Rajini and Kanth in their names and the hero is thrilled to be part of a film named after the one and only Superstar.
