Balachander narrated Rajini as the Vivekananda of modern times. Superstar Rajinikanth's Kuselan audio was officially launched yesterday in a star studded function took place at Le Meridian in Chennai on Monday evening. Superstar came to the stage sharply at 7 pm and the event geared up the very next moment. P Vasu, the father of the project as referred by GP Vijayakumar, welcomed all.

K Balachander in his speech praised Rajinikanth, and also gave an unusual speech on their relationship and even compared it with Ramakrishna Paramahamsa-Vivekananda bonding. He told, "Everyone across the globe knows Rajini as the Superstar of Indian Cinema. But none knows me in America. That is why I am comparing our relationship with the epic personalities," he says.

P Vasu in his speech said the "film is about friends and bonding. Srinivasan, who wrote the original story in Malayalam, must have kept Rajinikanth in his mind when he wrote the story of the film. Vasu heaped praises on GV Prakash Kumar, the music director and said that all the songs have come out well, and there is melody in them.

In his speech Rajinikanth thanked everybody those who worked for the film. He said everybody who saw the rushes of the film was in awe of it. "The subject is good and everybody is talking positively about it making me tense. Think always positively," said the Superstar in his humorous way.

Rajini is really very simple and sentimental human....and not like others.i am not interested in mentioning their names....Rajini is really great and his simplisity and not doing any bad to others gain the name like this.... If u say like this means then some are gainig some nick names and all which are totally not related to them if we speak about that and all then it will become a great comedy...!!!!

K. Balachandran, this too much, is rajini your really your vivekananda. Just because he helped you that does not mean you can tag him as vivekananda, there are others who have made him remind of his movie thallapathy where importance is given to friends and that's what he has done, he is neither vivekanada nor you are paramasha, as neither of you deserve that title. to me rajani is devoted to god and is to some extent matches the traits of kaliyuga raghavendra. Please stop praising and concentrate on what best as a media team you can help the nation and how you people can improve the people status and give encourgaing and postive message and true information.

Ugly comment or an ugly praise. From when Filmi culture become religion in the world? Sorry, can't agree to such foolish speculation. Saints should not become so cheap for entertainment media people. Film will flop now.

I think Mr K. Balachander doesn't know any thing about Sri Ramakrishna and Vivekananda.May be thisis the influence of American culture But sorry to say .This not an Indian culture .Please go back to Basic.
