The 100-odd technicians of forthcoming Rajnikanth-starrer Tamil film 'Kuselan' got a windfall of Rs.4.5 million as its hero, producer and director pooled part of their fees and donated the amount to them during the movie's audio release here.
'In my endeavour to help the unsung heroes of the film industry -- the technicians, I have networked with producer Vijay Kumar and director P. Vasu to donate Rs.1.5 million from their overflow and fees, respectively, and added a similar amount from my emoluments,' superstar Rajnikanth announced Monday night.
His announcement was received with thunderous applause from the audience of technicians who were being recognised in such a fashion for the first time in the south Indian film industry.
