Rajni gets more backers

  • IndiaGlitz, [Monday,June 13 2005]

A hero usually has the capacity to make even his detractors speak in glowing terms.

And Rajni sure is a super hero. He has made his long-time bete noire PMK supremo Dr Ramadoss to come out in praise of him.

Ramadoss's PMK not long ago was at Rajni's throat and even went to the extent of snatching the copies of his film Baba.

However now equations seem to have changed.

After Union Minister for Health and Ramadoss's son Dr Anbumani appreciated Rajnikanth for not accommodating any smoking scenes in his recent release Chandramukhi, it was the turn of Ramadoss to sing paeans for the actor.

Addressing press persons in Chennai, the PMK founder hailed Rajnikanth for not having any scenes of smoking in the movie and urged fellow artistes to follow the same.

Going further ahead, Ramadoss said a majority of today's youth take to the habit of smoking after seeing their favorite stars smoke on screen.

Ramadoss also thanked producer AVM Saravanan and actor Surya for taking a decision not to have smoking sequences in their movies henceforth.
