It was during this period that Rajinikanth harbored a dream of becoming an actor. Encouraged by his close friend Raj Bahadur, who recognized his aspiring talent, Rajinikanth enrolled in the Madras Film Institute and received continuous support throughout his journey. Rajinikanth's breakthrough role came in the 1975 film Apoorva Raagangal. Even though his initial dream of being a lead actor was not fulfilled at that time, his portrayal of a negative character garnered significant attention.
Subsequently, Rajinikanth skyrocketed to immense fame with films such as Baasha (1995), Muthu (1995), Sivaji (2007), Enthiran (2010), Kabali (2016), and many others. His most recent appearance was in Jailer, which turned out to be one of the biggest Indian releases of the year. To honor his birthday, fans eagerly anticipate the unveiling of the first look of his next film, tentatively titled Thalaivar 170.
