Trivia

After Basha became a superhit, Rajinikanth became very influential -- and commanded more loyalty than the then-current CM of Tamil Nadu state. He had a clash with that state's Chief Minister while he was going for shooting, when the road was blocked for the CM's passage. Rajinikanth himself reportedly came out of his own car and stood on the road, and a crowd gathered around him. As a result, it took almost three hours for the CM to cross the road.
