Kamal Vs Rajini: Who is The Best?

Bangalore: Rajinikanth doesn’t wear a watch. He decides what time it is, and his calendar goes straight from March 31 to April 2—because NOBODY can fool Rajinikanth.

Ever come across lines like these? Well sure, some of them are said to be inspired by Chuck Norris jokes, but well, if you don’t like them, you’d better run when you have the chance; because Rajinikanth is watching. Mind it.

Movies, first introduced as a means of recreation, have evolved over time and have gained the power to inspire, and ignite the soul, as with any other form of art. India especially stands witness to this fact, with its actors having a cult status, and devotees who are determinedly loyal to their favorite stars.

Actors like Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan especially are privy to this kind of god-like-status with the masses; and one question that continues to plague South India is that of who is better at the trade—the iconic Kamal Haasan or idolized Rajinikanth?

1. If you played by numbers, Rajinikanth is older than Kamal, but entered the film industry later than the latter. The ‘Superstar’ of Tamil cinema made more than a whopping 150 films since 1975, while Kamal Haasan had his first performance when he was just four years old, and since 1959, he has acted in over 300 movies.
