Rajinikanth, after shooting for Sivaji in the US, is back in India.

Though there is no official word on Sivaji, the general belief is that the shoot for Sivaji seems to be over.

The small portions shot in the US seem to be the last few portions. But you never know with Shankar. A stickler for form and content, he will re-shoot if he finds any scene not to his liking.

Meanwhile, after arriving in India from the US, Rajini headed straight for the hill temple of Thirupathi.

He had darshan standing in the line. Seeing him, a huge crowd of fans gathered around him.

Later talking to fans and reporters, Rajini expressed satisfaction that Sivaji has come out really well.

Rajini is not a person who will hype his own film. So when he says this, then it has to be real and true.

Rajini went to the extent of saying that Sivaji has the prospects of being bigger than Basha, his biggest hit so far.

Meanwhile, some personal stills of Rajinikanth in the US have emerged in the vernacular press. Going by it, Rajini looks young and ravishing.

That surely ups the excitement over Sivaji.
