The Name Is Rajnikanth
As a big time fan of SuperStar Rajnikanth, I’m quite excited to hear about this latest project.
Dr. Gayathri Shrikanth, a renowned ophthalmologist in Chennai, has written a biography of the Superstar titled “The Name is Rajnikanth”. Due to release in Chennai on the 6th of March, it is priced at Rs. 495.

I read the book “The Name is Rajnikanth” last week (english version).
The book is full of mistakes. Both factual mistakes as well as spelling mistakes.
I am really surprised that the author has no knowledge on Rajnikanth’s films or its titles. I am really surprised that the publisher has not taken any efforts to run the book through some ardent rajnikanth fans to check some facts relating to his movies.
It was sad reading the book with so many mistakes. I am going to send the book back to the publisher and ask for a refund of Rs 490. (some sample of mistakes: a) Rajni’s role as police Alex Pandian is in movie called Moondru Mugam and not Moondru Mudichu. b) Rajni was not the hero of Aboorva Raagangal. It was Kamal. c) Rajni’s movie Moondru Mudichu is not a slap stick comedy. Its a serious story and Rajni is a serious villain in that movie. Rajni’s slap stick comedy with K.Balachander was Thillu Mullu and not Moondru Mudichu. d) Rajni and Sivakumar acted in Bhuvana oru Kelvikurri and not in Bhuvana oru kavi Kuyil. Kavi Kuyil is a different movie by itself. e) Director Shankar had nothing to do with the movie Johnny. Johnny was directed by Mr Mahendran. The list of mistakes is endless. It was frustrating to read the book. Hope Mr and Mrs Rajnikanth read this book fully before they attend various functions and launch the book in other parts of the world.
