Just as he commanded astronomical remunerations for his movies, his conduct was said to be exemplary if his films tanked at the box-office. Rajinikanth is also known for his sense of fair play. The poor young man with a heart of gold, who wins over the rich and mighty is a recurring theme in many of his movies, and something that fans relate to everytime he appears on screen. It was movies like 'Baasha', 'Annamalai', and 'Sivaji' that cemented Rajinikanth's cult status.

Along the way, he worked in Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam movies, in addition to the occasional Hindi movie like 'Andha Kanoon' and 'Hum' to name a few. Thanks to a couple of lucky breaks, including the hit movie 'Priya' where he portrays a detective, Rajinikanth had transitioned to lead roles. For some time, he made the headlines for his visits to his Himalayan guru's abode, seeking solutions to many of society's ills.Д«ut throughout, Rajinikanth never lost sight of his cinematic career goals.

Gradually, Rajinikanth took control of his life and turned a new page altogether. Incidentally he first met his wife Latha, when she came to interview him for a college magazine.

His smoking and alcohol-loving lifestyle used to be the talk of the town. In real life too, in the conservative Chennai society of the 70s and 80s, Rajinikanth briefly enjoyed a reputation as a bit of a bohemian. His inimitable style quotient included mannerisms such as popping a cigarette and lighting it, or rocking on his heels while rattling off long dialogues, with a sneering smile plastered across his face.

Thereafter, a series of negative roles in a succession of movies ensured he became a known face to movie-goers. Balachander's find, Rajinikanth made his debut with a small role in 'Apoorva Raagangal' in 1975. Interestingly, the 70-year-old superstar who has held sway over the silver screen for several decades, began his career as the quintessential bad man on screen. The acting bug caught him pretty young, and egged on by his bus-driver friend Raj Bahadur, he took off to then Mecca of south Indian cinema - Madras, now Chennai. Born in erstwhile Mysore state as Shivaji Rao Gaekwad, in a middle-class Marathi family of Bangalore, young Rajinikanth took up several odd jobs before landing a job as a bus conductor in the Karnataka capital. His life itself is reminiscent of some of the rags to riches roles he has successfully portrayed on the big screen. There was a time, when Rajinikanth was a big time craze in faraway Japan. His popularity breaches regional and national boundaries too. However, bracketing Rajinikanth as a Tamil movie star would be a grave injustice to the legions of fans and admirers he has acquired across regions and languages - Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, and Hindi - he has acted in all the movie industries.
