Before starting work on a film and after release of his film, Rajini usually visits Tirupathi for a darshan of Lord Venkateswara. 'Kuselan' is running successfully and Rajini went to Tirupathi. After the Lord's darshan, he was surrounded by reporters.
He carefully avoided any reference to the issue created by his apology to the Kannada people. Instead, he said that the Telugu version of 'Kuselan' titled 'Kadhanayakadu' was doing very well in Andhra, so as per his vows, he had come to Tirupathi.
Rajini also told reporters that shooting for 'Robot' is to start in the US around the 10th of this month and he would be leaving in a few days to the US.
Those who saw Rajini now at Thirupati feel he does not have the same enthusiasm now as compared to after the 'Sivaji' release. When asked by reporters if a song was to be shot now with Aishwarya Rai in the US, Rajini said that it was the director's choice.
