‘Best in every role you play’
Soundarya shared pictures of Rajinikanth with his unwilling grandson on Instagram, sharing that when he was unwilling to go to school, his thatha (grandfather) took it personally upon himself to drop him to school.
Soundarya wrote, “My son didn’t want to go to school this morning (sun emoji)… and SUPERHERO THATHA dearest took him to school himself (hug and heart emojis) you are the best in EVERY ROLE you play .. on and off screen my darling appa (heart eyes, kiss and love emojis) #BestGrandfather #BestFather #JustTheBest.”
The first picture Soundarya shared showed the actor pointing at his grandson who seemed upset about going to school. The second showed him in his grandson’s classroom, interacting with excited students.

One fan commented that it was cool to either be the one dropped by the Kaala actor to school or even the one to see him at school. They wrote, “Imagining both scenarios. Either getting dropped by Rajinikanth or seeing him at school. WOW! Lucky ones. The best part is…I am the third generation and in awe as to how he has captured the hearts of our grandparents, parents, us and our children.”
One fan noticed a little girl who was clearly thrilled to see Rajinikanth at her school in the photo, writing, “Love that girl’s expression who has covered her mouth in surprise. Appa, Appa thaan, they always are special, even if he is the one and only super star.” Another wrote, “Hahaha look at he kids, they would have had a field day seeing uncle haha cutest!”
