‘Rajinikanth clicks photos with fans with his own camera, sends it to them in PDF format’, co-actor recalls working with superstar

Veteran actor Rajinikanth is currently gearing up for his upcoming film titled Jailer. The film was announced last year and recently, the film’s audio launch saw Rajinikanth greeting his fans. Now, actor Vishal Saroye has opened up about working with Rajinikanth in Kaala and Darbar. Vishal said that Rajinikanth likes to click photos with his fans and does it with his own camera. He later sends PDF files of the photo to the fans.

In an interview with Join Films, Saroye recalled the time when he worked with the actor. “As soon as the shot was done, he (Rajinikanth) was sitting in a place and the shoot location had a lot of mosquitos. I told him ‘Sir, you sit in the van, they will call you.’ He replied, ‘No, the director will call me.’ I told him there is a lot of time and asked him to sit in his van. He refused. He is that kind of an actor who looks at the director’s face first instead of the monitor after a shot is complete,” he said.

Recalling how he got a picture with the star, Vishal shared, “In the evening, after pack up, after changing his costume and removing his make up, when he is in his actual real look, he will call you and he will not a take a picture from your phone, he will take a picture in his camera and he will send the file in a PDF format to you.” When asked about why he takes pictures with his camera, Rajinikanth simply said that it’s for better quality and to make a lasting impression on people’s memories.
