Happy Birthday Rajinikanth: PM Narendra Modi, Amitabh Bachchan and others wish the superstar

On Rajinikanth's birthday, our celebs and Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to Twitter and wished the superstar a very happy born day

As superstar Rajinikanth turns 66 years old today, the internet is flooded with birthday wishes and #happybirthdayrajinikanth is trending everywhere since morning. Fondly known as the Thalaiva, Rajinikanth is the most humble of celebrities you will ever come across.

And in an interview, his daughter Soundarya explained that how he remains a meek down-to-earth person even at the zenith of his mega-stardom. She said:

He is a very simple human being. He never forgot where he came from. As his children, my sister Aishwarya and I learned this from him — to never forget our roots. With our dad, there are no two faces. What you see is what he is. Whether it’s a fan or a producer, he treats them all the same. He has been down to earth all his life. He will never change. We, as his children, try to emulate that trait of our dad.
