Quite like the Jailer audio launch event under Sun Pictures last year, the Lal Salaam audio launch event paved way for discourses on topics like 'Vijay Vs Rajini' and the term 'Sanghi'. While statements from Rajinikanth, Aishwarya Rajinikanth and AR Rahman will be unveiled to the public for the first time through the Sun TV's airing of Lal Salaam audio launch, here are excerpts from those who witnessed the live event:
"#Rajinikanth is not a Sanghi" - Aishwarya Rajinikanth

"Sanghi is not a bad word" - #Rajini
"#Superstar is a man beyond religion" - #ARRahman

6 months since the fateful #JailerAudioLaunch speech, #Rajinikanth clarifies at the #LalSalaamAudioLaunch that it was never about #Vijay & says it is heartbreaking to witness such comparisons

Lal Salaam titled after the South Asian communist chant, is themed around communal harmony and religious tolerance. Rajinikanth appears in a Muslim character named Moideen Bhai who calls out poisoning of young minds by an intolerant society. Aishwarya Rajinikanth has said that while the character was not written for Rajinikanth, the Superstar himself asked for the role and performed. Lal Salaam music composer AR Rahman has said that Rajinikanth has also tweaked some dialogues in the film.
