December 12 marks the birthday of Style Icon Rajinikanth. Such is his popularity and for any Thalaivar fans, this day is no less than any festival. The iconic star celebrates his 66th birthday today.

His stunts, body language, dialogue delivery, even his romantic scenes captivated all kinds of viewers. Audiences cheered and screamed in delight whenever their favorite actor appeared on screens. All the appreciation raised his star-status; from ‘Style Mannan’, he became the invincible Superstar.

Watching a Rajinikanth movie is not a cinematic experience that falls strictly within the dictates of a good story, racy screenplay, great music or other factors that conventionally make movies click. The iconic Superstar contributes a certain magic that is hard to explain. It's more like a mother's touch in home cooking that simply makes your 'dil' want more.

The star is currently busy shooting for Shankar's 2.0, touted to be India's costliest film and post which he will once again team up with his Kabali director Ranjith.

Galatta.com wishes this evergreen Superstar, a wonderful birthday and hopes to see him light up the screen for a very long time.
