Today, Rajinikanth is the biggest Superstar in the country and there is no doubt regarding that. Though there are many reasons for his star-power, we've listed out top five qualities of Rajinikanth that make him a Superstar.

When Rajinikanth made his debut, Kamal was already a big star. Most will accept Kamal is a better actor but it's Rajini who knew exactly what he wanted and what to do to become a superstar. Kamal himself said at a function, “Once I had a heated argument over Rajini’s selection of movies but he quietly listened to my points and took a firm decision on his future”.

Rajini mentioned at Kamal’s 50th year anniversary function, “Many are having their doubts on how I become a Superstar in a state where Kamal is present. I would say, I’ve changed my route “.

Yes, Rajinikanth chose the path which will lead him to the Superstar throne and now he is majestically sitting on it. This clarity of thought has made him the Superstar.

Maybe if Rajini listened to Kamal’s advice, we would have seen many classy movies like Mullum Malarum and Aarilirunthu Arubathu Varai but we would have also missed the biggest entertainer of the century.

Clear planning and marketing

Rajinikanth is a great marketing wizard. He knows exactly how to market and plan his film.

After Baashah, Rajinikanth could have acted in many number of movies and earned a couple of crores but he took a decision to slow down the release rate of his movies, which raised expectations among audience.

People wait with bated breath for Rajinikanth’s movies and when it hits the screens, it's a treat for them!

Rajini’s movies have similar elements but with the gap between each film, it tends not to get redundant with the audience. Plus, he makes sure his movies are always high on entertainment value.

Great knowledge about entertainment, logic & scope for other actors

The problem with many of the current generation's top stars is that they don’t seem to have a big heart to give scope to the antagonists. We often see movies where big stars are shown as the supreme power while the villain will be a dummy. But Rajini’s films always have powerful villains.

No one forget the cold-blooded Radharavi (Annamalai, Muthu), Raghuvaran (Baashah, Muthu) , Ramya Krishnan (Padayappa) , Sumanth (Sivaji) and not to forget the split-personality-affected Jyothika (Chandramukhi).

A hero will be celebrated only if he bashes the most powerful baddie on earth and Rajinikanth does that time and again.

Versatility in style

Rajini’s famous hand gestures, cigarette smoking style and punch dialogues may all seem like he's got it down pat. But the truth is that the actor has really worked hard to bring out the variations for each movie.

Before a movie, Rajini apparently finds a peculiar style-statement that will suit the theme of the film, and most of the time it evokes great reception.

When political leaders request him to stop smoking in movies, he obliged but replaced chewing-gum with cigarette in Sivaji, which went on to become a great style statement.

We also hear that Rajini’s involved in contributing to his dialogues, so much so that some punch dialogues have been written by the actor himself!

Great decision maker

One of the greatest qualities for a leader is to take the right decision at the right time and Rajinikanth has an excellent decision-making skill.

Political parties are continuously knocking Rajini’s doors and inviting him to join them. Had Rajinikanth joined politics, his films may or may not have clicked as well. If he had, he wouldn't have had the time to become India's biggest Superstar nor deliver its biggest blockbuster, Endhiran.
