Sivakarthikeyan shares a fan moment with Rajinikanth, calls him the Don of Indian cinema

The other day, Kamal Haasan and Lokesh Kanagaraj shared pictures of them posing with Rajinikanth for photos at the Superstar's house as their film Vikram is ready for release. Film buffs and fans of both the stars went gaga over the photos and recalled the friendship between the two legends.

Now, Sivakarthikeyan, a self-confessed fan of Rajinikanth, has shared a photo of himself posing with the latter on his Twitter page. Needless to say, the former looks super happy. His recent outing, Don, had a few references of Rajinikanth's previous movies and fans of the Superstar instantly lapped them up.

The elated young star said that he got to spend an hour's time with his matinee idol and thanked him for his blessings and comments on Don. He also went on to call him the Don of Indian cinema. Siva tweeted, "With the DON of Indian cinema. Met super star @rajinikanth sir and got his blessings.. That 60 minutes will be a lifetime memory..Thank you so much Thalaiva for your time and valuable appreciations for #DON (sic)."

Meanwhile, there have been unconfirmed reports doing the rounds recently that Sivakarthikeyan might be playing a small part in Rajinikanth's Thalaivar 169 which will be directed by Nelson Dilipkumar. 

In a recent interaction with the press, Siva had expressed his interest to be a part of the project, as a lyricist or as an actor. But he clarified that he hasn't been approached for the film.

Siva, who is on a roll with back-to-back hits Doctor and Don, is likely to have at least one more release this year. He currently has Anudeep's SK 20, Ravikumar's Ayalaan and Rajkumar Periasamy's Maveeran in his kitty. According to sources, SK 20 is expected to be the star's next release.
