The talented 'Hunterrr' famed beauty Radhika Apte who currently began filming opposite Rajinikanth for their upcoming next 'Kabali' has received a compliment from the superstar within days of commencement of their shoot. In the film, Rajinikanth plays a mob boss and Radhika plays his wife.

The actress shot her first scene with the legend over the weekend, in Goa. She was nervous, but the superstar made her feel comfortable by helping her with her lines, cracking a joke and complimenting her work. Though Radhika has earlier done a Tamil film (Dhoni), and is familiar with the language, she was conscious about not taking retakes while shooting with the star.

On the first day of shoot only she had dialogues, while her co-star didn't. But she learned them so well that she didn`t have to do any retakes. Remarked an excited Radhika, "I feel it's a great opportunity to be able to work with Rajini sir. He is the most humble and simple human being I have come across. I feel lucky to share screen space with him so early on in my career."

'Kabali' will be shot in Chennai, Malaysia, Bangkok and Hong Kong and dubbed and simultaneously released in Telugu as Mahadeva.
