According to sources a 42 year old Jayanthi said "I am a Rajini veriyan (extreme fan)," introducing herself in a voice gruff with emotion. She said with conviction that "After Amma (J Jayalalitha), only Rajinikanth will work for the development of women". Meanwhile this mother of three from Trichy works as part of the housekeeping team in a hotel and runs a home just on her meager salary.
But that has done little to stop her from diving head first into responsibilities of over the month old Rajinikanth Mandram (forum) in her district. She said "He is a very good man who has a simple lifestyle despite being rich and he will definitely do good for the people". "We want him to specifically work for women's welfare".
Further 40 year old Sangeetha an advocate by
profession said "Women fans are like the Superstar's sleeper cells.
We were never given a chance to display our loyalty till now. You take any
actor, be it Vijay or Ajith, all his fan clubs are led exclusively by men.
Women were not given opportunities to even meet Rajinikanth. But now that he is
a politician, every one of us, irrespective of gender can demand equal access
to him".
