“My contribution is only 25%”

As mentioned earlier, the launch of the next film of the Super Star, Kuselan, was made 9.30 am sharp today in AVM studios. It was stars all around for the function to witness the launch amidst a packed crowd of media personnel - close to about 500 of them from Print, Internet and visual media from all over India, with a couple of Channels carrying live feed too.
Most surprisingly the media was gifted with an interview with the Super Star (something which is a rarity) and with pleasure he spoke few words about the banner and the film.

“I’m proud to work for my guru KB and his banner Kavithalaya“, Rajini said. “They have produced films for me which not only gave me money but the celebrity status too. While the elders and educated were impressed with the film Sri Raghavendra, I felt proud when Sivaji Ganesan and Dr Rajkumar spoke high about my performance in Netrikan. Annamalai gave me the Super Star status - but it was Muthu which earned me international fame and recognition. The films I’ve done for KB has been milestones and turning point in my film career”

Speaking about Kuselan he said, “Many talk about my character in this film. I tell you it is going to be an important character which is going to be spoke about much once the film is released. It is a role which my fans and public would enjoy the most. But going by the story line, 50% contribution is from Pasupathy, while myself and Vadivelu would share the rest.

Meena  is the heroine of the movie. She acted with me as a child artist and then paired with me - and now a mother’s role - (after his trademark laughter) - not for me, ofcourse, but for two children in this movie.

Just like in Chandramukhi, you are going to witness a startling climax in this movie too. Rest assured, this would turn out to be a good movie.“, Super Star opined.

On his part director Vasu “confirmed”that this is a typical Rajini film. “Don’t worry about his role in this movie at all” he said. It is a role designed to satisfy the Super Star himself as his fans. There is nothing like small or big role. Just as Chandramukhi, this is going to be a Rajini movie altogether“ assured P Vasu.

It is learnt that there would be two stunts in this movie (one to be done by Thalapathy Dinesh) and five songs. Rajini stars in four of this five songs including a couple of duets with Nayan. Super Start has agreed to extend his call-sheet by 5 more days to accommodate the change in script, which he agreed after listening to the director about the reasons for such changes from the original script.

Come August it is going to be another entertaining stuff from the Super Star.
