Rajnikant- New Superstar of Kollywood/Tollywood?

Well, looks like our bollywood superstar Big B is in to face tough competition for the "superstardom" status! What with first ShahRukh Khan close on his heels for the much coveted status, now its the turn of Kollywood or Tollywood (whatever its called) superstar Rajnikant, who has been having a huge fan following down south is all set to give stiff competition to the Bachchans!
Rajnikant is known as the king of punch.His latest Movie "Sivaji" is proving to be a big blockbuster with his fans going berserk in order to watch the film! Not only in India but abroad as well!
This week at the box office, it is a clash of the titans, literally, as the Big B's 'Jhoom Barabar Jhoom' and superstar Rajnikant's 100th film 'Sivaji' are set to release simultaneously.
He has been getting similar response abroad too. Fans poured milk on Rajnikanth’s cut-outs, offered prayers and pledged their lives as the much anticipated movie ‘Sivaji- The Boss’ opened to more-than-full houses in more than two thousand theatres across the country and abroad on Friday.
Not only that, Bollywood star prices seem a laugh as you travel down South where, without fuss and headlines, Tamil star Rajnikanth has become India's highest paid actor.
He is paid more than the Khans or even the Big B. With each new film Rajnikanth breaks his own record as India's highest paid acter.One of the reasons for Rajni's skyrocketing rates is that he is Tamil cinema's lone superstar after MGR, while four to five big heroes rule Bollywood. Realities that even his co-actors accept.
