On superstar Rajinikanth's 67th birthday on Tuesday, celebrities like megastar Amitabh Bachchan, filmmaker Karan Johar and actor Akshay Kumar wished him a long and a healthy life.
Fans of Rajinikanth, lovingly called Thalaiva, gathered outside his house in Chennai for his special day.
To mark the occasion, Rajinikanth's son-in-law, actor-producer Dhanush, also launched the second look of the megastar from the upcoming film. The actor is seen wearing sunglasses and a bearded look on the poster.
"Here you go! The king of style... Our Superstar's "Kaalaa" second look. The swag of superstar. Happy birthday Thalaiva."
