Rajinikanth, is the iconic matinee star of the South. Of late however, his public appearances have become quite rare and quick affairs. Therefore, the media feeds on information from second hand sources. But, one reliable source is Mr. Sathyanarayana Rao, the superstar’s brother. Recently, Mr. Rao announced that Rajini would definitely complete Jaggubai after some changes are made to the story. He also hinted that it could be a home production.

Rajini’s seeming aloofness stems from the frenzied reactions of his fans whenever news trickles out about his public appearance. Recently at the wedding of a close relative in Bangalore, fans thronged the venue and in the resulting melee, some were injured while Rajini’s brother was pushed down from the dais. Rajini was obviously pained at the episode and he did not stay for longer than five minutes. So, he has decided to be elusive about attending functions just to ensure the safety of life and limbs of scores of his fans.
