The ‘Kaala’ actor’s fans continued to fall at his feet on Thursday, the third day of the six-day photoshoot event. He pleaded with his fans to not do so, but his pleas fell on deaf ears.

“Fall only at the feet of God, mother and father. Do not fall at the feet of someone just because he has got wealth, fame and power,” said Rajinikanth before the photoshoot started on Thursday morning.

During his five-minute address to fans, Rajinikanth said, “When I was about 16 years old, I went to the 100th day celebration event of a Rajkumar-starrer in Bangalore. When I saw Rajkumar for the first time, I was filled with awe and I could not even see him as he was. Only scenes from his films were playing in my mind. I went and touched him in admiration. So, I can understand your enthusiasm.”

Rajinikanth told the weary fans, who had spent the night travelling to the city, “I wish to treat you to a mutton feast, but here at Raghavendra marriage hall, weonly serve vegetarian food. We will have a feast somesday at some other place.”

The actor met close to a thousand fans from Madurai, Virudhunagar, Salem and Namakkal districts on Thursday. He is scheduled to meet fans from Coimbatore, Tirupur, Erode and Vellore districts on Friday.
