While Rajinikanth completed his primary and middle school education in Kannada medium, his brother enrolled him in an English medium high school, which pushed him into depression.
“From being a topper on the front bench, I ended up on the last bench,” he admitted, candidly recalling his struggles with subjects like Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. He shared how the language barrier made it difficult to keep up with lessons, saying, “I went into depression because I found it hard to follow lessons in English.”
