Rajnikanth’s fans pray for Enthiran’s success

fans of superstar Rajnikanth have sought divine help to make a huge success of the multi-million dollar Tamil film Enthiran, which started its world promotion in Malaysia on July 31, reported Malaysian Nanban.

The paper said on Saturday evening more than 100 hardcore fans, aged 14 to 60, many on their knees, climbed the steps of the Lord Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy temple in Sholingur, about 120km from Chennai.

The fans took more than three hours to climb the 1,305 steps leading to the main temple and to perform special poojas for the success of the film.

The much-awaited science fiction film, co-written and directed by S. Shankar, also features movie queen Aishwarya Rai.

It is produced by Kalanidhi Maran. The film’s soundtrack, composed by A.R. Rahman, was released on July 31 to coincide with its promotional event at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre.
