Chennai: Actor-turned-politician Rajinikanth on Wednesday perhaps faced the most embarrassing question of his life from an injured youth in Tamil Nadu’s Thoothukudi, who asked Who are you?
Several days after the May 22 police firing at the anti-Sterlite Copper smelter plant protest in Thoothukudi left 13 people dead, Rajinikanth called on the injured persons admitted in the government hospital.
As he approached one patient’s bed, its occupant, a youth named Santhosh Raj slowly sat up and asked him: Who are you?
Rajinikanth then told the youth his name.
The video of this exchange has gone viral on the internet.
