That was during 90's and where did I say he was not recognised? Most stars at least in South are not thronged in airports. I wrote what I definitely know. So there's no need to get all caustic about that please.
If you don't believe it - that's fine. Your call.

IMO , The main reason south stars fail to make it in BW is because of their looks . Sad but truth . The dont enjoy the fandom which good-looking-non-actors enjoy ( Eg : Dhanush )

Rajinikanth acted really well in 1990's . My mom is a big Kamal fan and she doesn't enjoy Rahini at all . But she says that Rajini was a really good actor in 1990-2000 . But only after doing the star-type roles he got super fame .

Kamal hasan is multi talented and is a wonderful actor . But Rajini can connect more to the audience and is a bigger star than him .

Nobody will enjoy Rajini doing a normal role . They want him to do a role with punch dialogues and exhibit heroism . The box office says that . ( Example : Kuselan . It did not have the star quotient of Rajini and result : It failed )

And No South actor can still beat Rajini's records . He creates and breaks his own .

South audience have not still moved on to the younger generations . There are about 3 generations after Rajini still no one has acquired the popularity which he has .

Rajnikanth invented swag. I grew watching him and I know I am just succembing to the stereotype of a tamil girl but the truth is if you watch his older movies like padhaiyappa etc, you will ignore all the hamming and terrible acting and start liking him solely because of his style. No one can beat his style. He can't act as well as Kamal or Amitabh ( I am a huge fan of both ) but he still rules the south because of he makes every role his own .

And every one has this huge misconception that rajni is south indian. He is actually marathi. He lived in bangalore where he was a bus conductor ( My grandfather used to go on the same bus). He was recognized because of the way he lit his cigarette.

@Bold

I starting liking him only after watching that movie .

There was one movie of his called Mullum Malarum . Rajini was fabulous in it but that movie . He never got fame when he acted well .

Again , he did Kuselan but that movie was a flop without a stylish Rajini .

Rajini is good in the negative roles ( like in Enthiran , where he was appreciated for the robot character ) . Infact , he started off his career only as a villain .

He is not as god as Kamal . Kamal is in a different league .

Padhaiyappa was my childhood jam. I never ever gpt tired of that movie And yeah, rajni is good in negative roles, even in robot he had this unmatched style I haven't seen in anyone else.
Kamal and rajini remain my favourites in tamil cinema to date
