According to media reports,”The ‘Singham Returns’ director had paid a visit to the sets of Rajinikanth and Sonakshi Sinha starrer ‘Lingaa’ in Hyderabad. When Rajini got to know that Rohit was present on the sets, we hear that Thalaiva took a half an hour break from shooting to meet and greet the filmmaker”.
Rohit Shetty was left starstruck when he met the iconic actor in person. The director said, “Rajini Sir walked across to me; greeted me and said, ‘Rohit, I love your work. I’m a great fan.’ I was about to faint. I kept telling myself, this is Rajini Sir, who according to me is the biggest star in the universe. Yet he was so humble,” media reported.
It seem like a dream come true moment for ‘Singham Returns’ director who paid tribute to ‘Thalaiva’ star in his previous movie ‘Chennai Express’.
