Rajnikanth blown away by Naan Kadavul

February 10, 2009 13:13 IST

South super star Rajnikanth took time off from shooting Shankar's Enthiran (Robot) to watch two highly anticipated Tamil films -- Susindran's Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu and Bala's Naan Kadavul. He came away impressed.

After watching Naan Kadavul, he went to the extent of inviting the director and the actor to his residence to share his thoughts on the movie. So impressed was he by the movie that he praised both Bala and Arya for making such an extraordinary film.

If you remember, it is well known that Rajnikanth frequents Kasi [a district in Varanasi], where a part of the film was shot, to be with the sadhus there!

A visibly thrilled Rajnikanth told Bala, "Only you can make such a movie, Bala. I am impressed and stunned by your presentation."
