I always wonder why heroes give keep self-styled titles for themselves instead of others giving them one. Our thalivar Super star Rajinkanth is the only one who got a title from the public & truly deserves it. Look at some of the bufoons like "Supreme Star" Sarath Kumar, "Illaya Thalabathy" Vijay, "Ultimate star" Ajith, "Little Superstar" Simbhu. These 4 buffoons have titles named by themselves or their fathers who are film directors. Titles should be given by the public and not by themselves or their fathers. Phew!

  Srini,
  No title for any actor is given by the public. Rajini is no exception. U know how sivaji ganesan got the title "nadigar thilagam"? One reader asked a Q in "pesum padam" magazine : "why can't sivaji ganesan be called nadigar thilakam?. Pesum padam agreed & started publishing like that. The name stuck. Similarly for all actors.
  
  The public does not organise a function & gave a title for any actor & that includes rajini also.

  I am not disputing the title "superstar" to rajini. I have only pointed out how titles are hve. However, titles like "ultimate star", "supreme star", "little superstar" are all absurd.

  HAHAAAAA... I'm disappointed yet amused at u ppl.. u actually take de time off to argue abt these things.. haha.. but since I am here.. wat de heck.. I shall hv sum fun too.. ppl like Rajinikanth, MGR, Sivaji all got their 'Superstar', 'Makkal Thilagam' & 'Nadigar Thilagam' aft yrs of acting and establishin themselves.. Sivaji got tt name of coz due to his tremendous acting.. MGR got de title cuz of his "closeness" wid de ppl.. n well, Rajini got his title by juz being de actor tt he is.. de style, charisma, screen presence n juz simply de x-factor tt he has, EARNED him his title.. Kamal is got Padmashree cuz of de Padmashree award he received.. n if I'm rite, he's also being dubbed 'Universal Star' in recent times.. but hell, he deserves tt kinda name.. cuz of his accomplishments thus far.. but de heroes of nowadays get niqnamed by their dads who most of de times r de ones who intro them into de industry.. Silambarasan de 'Little Superstar'? hahaaa... gimme a break.. he's a kid.. let's look at a few others..
  
  'Action King' Arjun -> actually it ain't tt bad.. tho in de beginnin he was actually called 'Indian Jacky Chan'.. *sigh* after all, Arjun is pretty well known for his action movies.. n he HAS established himself.. he's definitely one of MY fave actors..
  
  'Supreme Star' Sarath Kumar -> I seriously hv no idea hw tt niq came abt.. but I noe tt it appeared at a time where niqs were poppin up in every direction.. does he deserve it? I dunno.. perhaps 'Naattaamai' Sarath Kumar mite be more suitable.. after all, tt WAS one of his best movies..
  
  'Captain' or 'Puratchi Kalainjar' Vijaykanth - uh......... I dun really wanna comment too much.. cuz I'm an anti-Vijaykanth person.. de 1st niq obviously came aft de movie "Captain Prabaagaran".. de latter, probably cuz of his 'patriotism' in his movies..
  
  'Puratchi Thamizhan' Satyaraj -> I dun really HV anythin to say.. cuz Satyaraj is a practical guy who stands out as dis simple guy wid great ideologies.. n he's an ardent MGR fan.. so....... I'll leave it at tt.. ;)
  
  'Ilaiya Thalabathy' Vijay -> I dunno.. is he giving a gd example for de youth tt he's supposedly leading?? u tell me.. ;) but he's a gd actor of coz.. n he's movies r worth watchin.. well, at least som of them r.. hehe..
  
  'Ultimate Star' Ajith -> ok.. Ajith is a really gd actor who HAS given great movies.. but his market has really gone down these days.. so de title is a bit too much for him.. maybe de previous title he was given, 'Aasai Nayagan', wld be more suitable.. :)
  
  Simbu was GIVEN de title of so-called 'Little Super*' by his hopeless father.. he din earn it.. n SURE AS HELL doesn't DESERVE it.. he's a really dumb wannabe.. so....... *sigh* nvm..
  
  'Ilaiya Thilagam' Prabhu -> dis title was given for obvious reasons.. de so-called carryin on de tradition thingy.. but of coz, Prabhu won't even come to a fraction of de legend his dad was n still is..
  
  'Indian MJ' Prabhu Deva -> *sigh* nvm... hehe.. I mean, yea sure, de guy can really rock.. but come on.. where's MJ n where's dis guy? he himself has said before in an interview tt he is juz a simple dancer/actor on screen n he does all these dances in like GOD-noes-hw-many-takes.. whereas MJ can do a show for 3 long hrs.. so pl zdun compare.. I take my hat off to Prabhu Deva for very maturely n practically thinkin n declarin tt..
  
  Does Dhanush even hv a title? I noe tt he was briefly called 'Indian Bruce Lee' cuz of his remarkable similarity in appearance wid de martial arts legend.. but now I dunno wat he's being called..
  
  n of coz, who can forget 'Chiyaan' Vikram.. he totally deserves it, n as far as I noe, is totally cool wid tt title.. I firmly believe tt dis one title is enough for him.. n it kinda suits him well..
  
  >> n now, for sum spoofs ;) <<
  
  'Ilaiya Thalai-Vali' Vijay..
  'Aanjinaiya' or 'Kaanaa Poana Jana' Ajith Kumar..
  'Nakkal Nayagan' Satyaraj..
  'Naattaamai' Sarath Kumar..
  'Veenguna Erumai' Vijaykanth..
  'Bayangara Gorilla' T.Rajendar..
  'Thullum Ilamai' Dhanush.. (named after his 1st
  movie..)
  I dun even wanna niqname Simbhu cuz I severely dislike tt joker.. but I recently heard a spoof abt him.. a little rhyme tt goes like dis..
  'Simbhu Little Superstaaru? Illai! Simbhu Sootthulae Periya Scaaru!'..
  Hahaaa.. tt was a gd one man.. I dunno who created tt.. but tt was a gd one.. well, anw.. tt's all folks.. if I think of anymore, I'll be back.. ciao......................................
