Rajinikanth, who is celebrating his 62 birthday today, has acquired a unique image among movie celebrities in India that has almost been inexplicable. Rajinikanth’s popularity has been attributed to “his uniquely styled dialogues and idiosyncrasies in films, as well as his political statements and philanthropy”.

Many also cite reasons for Rajinikanth’s popularity as coming from his larger-than-life super-hero appearance in many films, supported by gravity-defying stunts and charismatic expressions, all the while attempting to maintain modesty in real-life.

Almost every film of Rajinikanth has punchlines delivered by him in an inimitable style, and these punchlines refer to the film’s story as well as the outside world. These dialogues are usually fabricated for every new film to further hype Rajini’s image.
