PETALING JAYA – Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today welcomed a superstar at his Putrajaya office.
In a Facebook post, much to the delight of local Kollywood fans, Anwar informed that he received a visit from Rajinikanth.
“I appreciate the respect he has shown for my struggles, especially those concerning the rakyat's hardships and suffering,” said Anwar.
In what looked like a casual visit, Rajinikanth spent some time discussing the societal issues championed by Anwar for the former to incorporate in his future films.
@anwaribrahimofficial Hari ini saya menerima kunjungan bintang filem India, Rajinikanth yakni satu nama yang tidak asing lagi di pentas dunia seni asia dan antarabangsa. Saya hargai penghormatan yang diberikan beliau terhadap perjuangan saya khasnya terkait isu kesengsaraan dan penderitaan rakyat. Antara yang dibincang secara santai pastinya berkaitan elemen kemasyarakatan yang saya perjuangkan untuk dimasukkan dalam filem-filem beliau kelak. Dititipkan doa agar Rajinikanth terus cemerlang dalam lapangan dan dunia perfileman. #MalaysiaMADANI ♬ original sound - Anwar Ibrahim
“I pray that Rajinikanth will continue to shine in the film industry,” Anwar remarked.
It is unclear why Rajinikanth is in town, but the film star has a movie currently showing in cinemas, Jailer.
Just three days ago, it was reported that Jailer has collected about RM338 million worldwide.
In the action-packed movie, Rajinikanth plays the role of Tiger Muthuvel Pandian.
In an earlier Bernama report, Five Star Trading said the movie, which opened here on August 10, collected about RM10 million within five days of screening. – The Vibes, September 11, 2023
