Rajinikanth
has shown us that greatness is not just
about success, it is also about how we preserve
our inner selves in waves of success.
To finish off with an anecdote: during
the shooting of Chandramukhi the entire
crew was traveling in a bus. Rajinikanth
too was in the bus which was traveling at
a fair speed. He was standing in the center
of the bus without holding on to anything.
Someone advised him ‘Sir, you may
fall, please catch hold of something’.
Rajinikanth smiled and replied ‘I
was once a bus conductor; I know how to
stand in a moving bus without falling.’
There might be humor in what he said but
there is also a profound message. No matter
what peaks you scale and what you become,
never forget what you once were, never forget
your roots. |
