3 Questions related Rajini's twitter entry


What a week it was for Rajinikanth! Superstar broke a number of twitter records through his dashing entry and later quickly hit by shocking news of postponement of Kochadaiiyan release date due to financial trouble. Rajinikanth's unexpected twitter entry popped a number of questions among fans,

 

Is twitter entry a desperate attempt to create pre-release hype for Kochadaiyaan?


Rajinikanth known for his low-lying profile has not endorsed any products in his career despite his towering brand and popularity all over India. He has not shown much interest in the past trying to reach out exclusively to his cyberfans. The news of Rajinikanth entering twitter just a few days ahead of Kochadaiiyan release was suspiciously seen as a desperate attempt at stoking the pre-release buzz for Kochadaiiyan rather than a genuine attempt to interact with his ardent fans.

 

Why celebrities in Rajinikanth's closer family circle ignore his twitter entry?


The fans were also perplexed when Rajinikanth's close family members and friends stayed largely silent totally oblivious to hysteria generated by Rajini's twitter entry. Rajinikanth's family members including Soundarya, Aishwarya, Dhanush and Anirudh appeared to remain intentionally quiet on Twitter. There was also no tweets nor re-tweets welcoming the superstar from any of the leading Hindi stars such as Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan who had capitalized on Rajinikanth's star value in the past. The silence among these celebrities seemed out of the ordinary given their level of (hyper)activity on twitter. 

 

Will Vijay, Ajith, and Suriya enter Twitter?


With Rajinikanth making his entry into social space, all eyes are towards the current generation of Tamil heroes who are expected to follow the path of Thalaivar. There are a number of leading Tamil heroes who have a strong presence in Facebook through their verified fan pages such as Kamal Haasan and Vijay with more than 1 million fans. While Ajith and Suriya have unverified facebook fan pages boasting more than 1 Million fan followings. Despite their indirect Facebook presence, many of Tamil's top heroes still shy away from twitter. It is now believed that some of our leading Tamil heroes may now be contemplating a twitter entry prior to their next big movie release. Who do you think will be next?
