A Legendary Career: The Superstar’s Enduring Appeal

His popularity has remained the same over time because of his ability to touch the masses. His acting as a superhero on screen and his affability off screen are some of the most defined parameters that glorify him. Although his persona is bigger than life, he is down to earth and thus gained the love of millions of fans who adore him by giving him the nickname: Thalaiva (Leader).

It is a symbol of perseverance and merit to have worked his way up with an initial job as a bus conductor to win one of the most applauded actor statuses in the world, and the congratulatory message by PM Modi can only be a salute to the career that has defined pop culture and motivated millions of people.
