New Delhi. South Indian cinema superstar Rajinikanth is known all over the world for his special style and immense swag. His stylish moves in films, from wearing glasses to tossing a coin and catching it brilliantly, have become his identity among the audience. But the interesting thing is that his style was not limited to films only. Many years before entering the film world, even when Rajinikanth worked as a bus conductor, his style attracted the passengers a lot. This was the reason why many people especially liked to travel in the bus in which Rajinikanth used to be the conductor.
This incident related to the days of Rajinikanth's struggle shows how natural was his art of attracting people. His style of giving tickets to passengers in the bus is said to be completely different from that of normal conductors. Instead of giving the ticket directly to the passenger, he used to deliver it by flipping it in a special style. Even in this small style of his, a different kind of confidence and entertainment was visible. Buying tickets was no longer just a routine process for the passengers but Rajinikanth's style made it worth watching.
It is said that Rajinikanth used to show his special moves even while returning money and coins. If he had to take a coin from a passenger or had to return change, instead of giving it in the usual way, he would catch it in his own style by throwing it in the air and then handing it over to the passenger. His art gradually became a topic of discussion among the travelers. Many people started liking to sit in his bus just to see his style.
People also liked Rajinikanth's style of talking. He used to have fun conversations with the passengers and kept the atmosphere pleasant with his cheerful behaviour. This was the reason that gradually he became a distinct identity among the regular passengers of the bus. At that time no one would have probably thought that the same bus conductor who used to entertain the passengers would later become one of the biggest superstars of Indian cinema.
An interesting similarity is also seen between this old style of Rajinikanth and his film career. After coming into films, his same stylish moves which he allegedly used while giving tickets in the bus, became his identity. His spontaneous style, from coin tossing to giving away tickets, later became a part of his signature style on the big screen.
Rajinikanth's story is also special in the sense that he started from a very ordinary job and made his own place in the world of cinema. His journey shows that a person's talent and personality can make a mark even in difficult circumstances. The swag for which Rajinikanth is today called Thalaiva was visible even during his days of struggle.
Talking about the work front, there is a lot of excitement among the fans about Rajinikanth's upcoming films. Apart from his famous film Jailer 2, other big projects are also in discussion. Even at this stage of age, Rajinikanth's stardom remains intact and as always, the audience expects tremendous entertainment from his films.
