Shiva Rajkumar was last seen alongside Rajinikanth in his blockbuster film Jailer, helmed by Nelson Dilipkumar. In an exclusive interview with Pinkvilla, the actor revealed his experience of working with Rajinikanth and stated that the Petta actor was more like family.
The Vedha actor said that working with Rajinikanth was a totally different experience, as they had never seen each other in a professional setup. He also added that the Darbar actor was surprised at how mature Shiva Rajkumar was on set, especially considering how mischievous he is offset.
Speaking about the experience, Shivanna said: “He (Rajinikanth) is more like a family. There’s a beautiful bonding between us. For working, it was different. And even he was surprised, he told me ‘You do a lot of tamasha off-set, but when you come on the set you’re totally different, your face becomes so serious.. Very different… Just be quiet, calm, composed… how is it?’, and I said I don’t know… it just comes.”
The Om actor also added that the second he comes out of a shot, he will go back to being the fun and mischievous character that he is in real life. Similarly, when he goes back for a shot, he becomes serious again.
