Not surprisingly, Rajinikanth was criticized heavily by everyone including famed personalities like film-maker Ram Gopal Varma, after reports emerged that theLingaa star has donated 10 Lakh rupees to help the rain affected victims of Chennai and Tamil Nadu.
Though it's not been confirmed officially, few reports have claimed that the superstar of Tamil cinema has donated a massive 10 Crore rupees towards the Chief Minister Public Relief Fund, without making much of a fuss.
It is said that the donation, which was allegedly given by Latha Rajinikanth to the CM J Jayalalithaa, is intended to fund the medical expenses of pregnant women across the state, who are finding it difficult to get the much needed medical attention because of the flood.
It is to be noted that Rajinikanth's donation of 10 Lakhs was made public, however, there is no concrete proof suggesting the actor's endowment of 10 Crore rupees. A genuine chivalrous move by the superstar perhaps?
Meanwhile, the Enthiran star has requested his fans not to celebrate his birthday but instead help the city get back on its feet. Fans are expected to oblige and take part in the relief and rescue activities even on their favourite star's birthday, which falls on December 12th.
Also, the team of Enthiran 2 has decided to put off the 'pooja', marking the commencement of the project, which was initially planned on a grand scale, according to a report.
Moving on, donations seem to be pouring in from all quarters. Earlier, we had informed you how actors from Tamil and Telugu film industries showcased their generosity by donating towards the relief fund, now Hindi actor Shahrukh Khan has donated handsomely as well.
