Of the multitude of stars and junior artistes who are part of Superstar Rajinikanth’s Kuselan, Santhanam is one. He plays the role of a production manager in the movie and considers the opportunity to be a case of his ‘dreams come true’. Santhanam recounts his first day shoot with the Superstar like yesterday and mentions it to be the first time he saw Rajini in close quarters.Dumbfound, I went to him and asked his permission to be photographed with him,” he states. The superstar, however, remarked as a matter of fact that they both were stars but did not turn down the wish. “I told him he was incomparable and no other star can come closer,” he adds.
The usually chirpy Santhanam confesses that he was a bundle of nerves when his scenes with the superstar were shot. “Rajini, however, sensed that I was nervous and made me relax with his attitude before we went in for the shoots,” Santhanam reminisces.
Kuselan is progressing day in and day out at the Ramoji Rao film city in Hyderabad with a truckload of stars.
