Rajinikanth is a name in Indian cinema that is synonymous to greatness. The megastar has made a name for himself that he has been compared to superheroes in Indian pop culture. Even though the Thalaiva has worked predominantly in Tamil cinema down South, his popularity has crossed the borders within the nation and globally as well.

The legend has been entertaining the audiences for close to five decades now and yesterday, Rajinikanth completed 47 years in showbiz. To commemorate that achievement and to celebrate 47 years of Rajinism, his daughter Aishwarya Rajinikanth took to her social media to share a beautiful picture of herself with her father, in which she is seen putting a flag on her father’s kurta along with another picture of the Thalaiva standing next to a board saying, ’47 Years of Rajinism’.

Along with the pictures, Aishwarya also penned a heartfelt note for Rajinikanth, taking pride in his achievement and celebrating him alongside India’s 75th Independence Day as well. She wrote, 76 years of independence… saluting sacrifices, struggles n strength.. #proudindian… 47 years of #rajinism .. sheer hard work grit n dedication !proud to born to him #prouddaughter (sic)”.
