Monday, attracted over 150,000 'followers' on his first day of joining the
social networking platform.

thank you to all my fans. Excited on this digital journey," read the first
tweet by the thespian, who is reverred for his acting acumen.
His new movie "Kochadaiiyaan", directed by his
younger daughter Soundarya R. Ashwin, is gearing for release Friday. Hence,
Rajini's decision to make his presence felt on the digital world, seems to be
well-timed.
He has decided to engage with his fans via the Twitter handle
@SuperStarRajini.
Earlier in the day, Rajinikanth said in a statement: "I
decided to start with Twitter because I felt that the platform is abuzz with
all the news and the trends that happen across the globe and I'm told that this
is where all the best Rajini one-liners are."
The 63-year-old, one of India's most prolific and influential
superstars, Rajinikanth's mass popularity and appeal is largely drawn from his
mannerisms and stylised dialogue delivery.
With his entry on Twitter, he hopes to interact with his
fans.
For this, he has partnered with CA Media Digital's first
venture, Fluence - a celebrity digital network - which will manage his digital
presence.
"I am confident that I have the best team and the best
guides who will help me connect with my audience," said the superstar.
