The 70-year-old revealed the story behind how the film came into the being, in a recent post on voice-based social media platform Hoote. “Petta showed me in a stylish avatar, and released along with Viswasam, which was directed by Siva and starred Ajith. Both films were super-hits, and so I was very curious to watch Viswasam. Its producer (Satya Jyothi Thyagarajan) arranged a screening. I found the film interesting till the interval, but was still puzzled on why it was such a huge success. However, as it neared the climax, its colours changed, and I started clapping towards the end,” revealed Rajinikanth.
