"The people attending our event will be both die-hard fans, who have followed Rajinikanth for more than 10 years, and individuals who became fans after Rajinikanth's movie 'Endhiran.' We are getting together with the intention of deepening relationships among the fans, and between Japanese and Indian culture, with tasty Indian food and a screening of ‘Kochadaiiyaan’ as well as a trailer for ‘Lingaa.’
