I was dumbstruck seeing superstar: Kalaiarasan

Actor Kalaiarasan shares his excitement with DC on meeting Rajinikanth recently
Madras fame Kalaiarasan didn’t sleep for an entire day. Ask him why? “What do you do when you see your matinee idol in front of you, shaking your hand?!” he remarks, clearly ecstatic.
The actor, who is part of the Rajinikanth-starrer Kabali, got to meet the superstar recently at the AVM studios, where the team was having a photo shoot with Rajinikanth.
“I entered films because of Rajini sir and have always been on cloud nine after watching any movie of his. I literally became dumb standing before him! Giving his ear to me, he attempted to calm me down by patting my shoulder. I didn’t even hear what he said, because I was that awestruck. Of course, I sought his blessings and it’s a lifetime opportunity for me,” Kalaiarasan tells DC.
What kind of role does he play in Kabali? “I didn’t even hear the script, but I gave my nod — one, due to Ranjith anna, who’s directing the film and another reason, because of Rajini sir. I don’t know what role I am playing even now, but if I get to appear in a single scene with superstar, that would be worth it,” he smiles.
The actor can’t stop gushing over his experience and says he could feel his hands cold and jittery after shaking hands with his icon. “Thalaivar looked fabulous in his salt-and-pepper look with a beard. He was super stylish and there was also Radhika Apte, who looked stunning with a nose ring. Ranjith anna knew that I was a die-hard fan of thalaivar and gave an opportunity to meet him before the film’s shoot.”
Kalaiarasan, also took to Twitter to express his joy, “Met the one and only super star thalaivar today... Big day... Felt really emotional and couldn’t speak a word... Love you, thalaivaaaaaaaa. Thalaivar told my name... Still not out of that shock. Flyingggggg (sic).”
