On the occasion of superstar Rajinikanth‘s 65th birthday on Saturday, celebrities across various fields including West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, megastar Amitabh Bachchan and veteran actor Anupam Kher have wished him “Happy birthday”.

Rajinikanth, who made his debut with filmmaker K. Balachander’s Tamil drama “Apoorva Raagangal” in 1975, he went on to star in films like “Mullum Malarum”, “Moondru Mugam”, “Kalaimamani”, “Muthu”, “Sivaji” and “Enthiran”.

His Hindi credits include “Bulandi”, “Aatank Hi Aatank”, “Insaniyat Ke Devta”, “Hum” and “Khoon Ka Karz”.

While fans wanted to celebrate their superstar’s birthday in a grand style, Rajinikanth requested them to call off all plans due to the grave situation caused by heavy rains in Tamil Nadu.
