Rajini started his carrer as a bus coundter in Bangalore, since he was born and brought up in bangalore. He also started his cine carrer in Kannada film industry, but his style, arrogance & acting was not liked by kannadigas, he switched over to tamil film. we Kannadigas are not bother about his popularity, as a kannidiga I have not watched his tamil films. I am born and brought up in karnataka, by birth I am residing in Bangalore that to in thickly populated Tamil Area, here also not all tamilians watch his movies, hardly 25% watch his movies. Kannadigas are peace loving people, whole world knowns about it that is the reason majority of Bangalore population are outsiders, it doest mean others should take ride of us. If rajini is a true kannidaga, born to a cultured family means He must should apologise, otherwise he will be setting a bad example, and a black spot in his life.
