South Superstar Rajinikanth, who generally shies away from promoting his own films, has done the rarest thing of promoting an upcoming film. Well, Rajini has done this favor for his '2.0' co-star Akshay Kumar by making a tweet to wish the actor for his August 12 release 'Rustom'.
"Dear @akshaykumar... I wish you all success for your forthcoming release #Rustom," tweeted Rajinikanth. An elated Akshay replied saying, "Thank you so much Rajni sir. Would love for you to see it."
Rajinikanth seems to have made an exception for Akshay Kumar as the highly popular Bollywood actor has accepted to play the villain in his '2.0' just out of sheer respect for him. Rajini is not the first celebrity to promote Rustom but even Bollywood Superstar Salman Khan and Ranveer Singh have already done their bit to promote it. Still, Rajinikanth's tweet was crucial as it has the capacity to pierce into the masses and bring craze for the film especially in south India.
'Rustom' is based on the real-life incident of decorated Naval Officer K M Nanavati, who was charged for the murder of his wife's lover. Directed by Tinu Suresh Desai, the film also stars Ileana and Esha Gupta. Rustom has been in news of late owing to its box-office clash with another high profile film, Hrithik Roshan's 'Mohenjo Daro' on this Friday.
