Aishwarya recently stated that if the superstar was a 'Sanghi,' he wouldn’t have chosen to be a part of a film like 'Lal Salaam'.
Tamil Superstar Rajinikanth has given a clarification about a statement made by his director-daughter Aishwarya Rajinikanth during the audio launch of their upcoming film Lal Salaam.
Aishwarya spoke about her father being termed “Sanghi” by a group of people.
On Monday, 28 January, Rajinikanth supported his daughter’s statement by saying that she never used “Sanghi” in a bad sense.
He was addressing the media outside the Chennai airport.
During the audio launch of Lal Salaam, Aishwarya said, “I was told that it is a term (Sanghi) used to call people who support a particular political party. Rajinikanth is not a ‘Sanghi’.”
She added, “My father being called a ‘Sanghi’ because he us inclined towards spiritual belief is not true.”
Aishwarya Rajinikanth also stated that if the superstar was a “Sanghi,” he wouldn’t have chosen to be a part of a film like Lal Salaam.
In the movie, Rajinikanth plays a Muslim named Moideen Bhai.
The teaser of Lal Salaam gives a glimpse into the story, which is about a political game that creates issues among religious communities.
Lal Salaam casts Vikranth and Vishnu Vishal in the lead. The film also features legendary Indian cricketer Kapil Dev in a cameo role.
AR Rahman has scored the music.
It is all set for release in theatres on 9 February.
One step closer 🙏🏼✨#lalsalaam pic.twitter.com/SgNUAl52ys
