Rajnikanth was bragging to Amitabh Bachchan one day,
"You know, I know everyone.
Just name someone, anyone, and I know them.
Tired of his boasting,Amitabh called his bluff, "OK,Rajini how about Tom Cruise?"
"Sure, yes, Tom and I are old friends, and I can prove it"Rajini said.
SoRajini andAmitabh fly out to Hollywood and knock on Tom Cruise's door, And sure enough, Tom Cruise shouts: ---
"Thalaiva! Great to see you! You And your friends come right in and join me for lunch!"
...Although impressed,Amitabh is still skeptical.
After they leave Cruise's house, he tellsRajini that he thinksRajini knowing Cruise was Just lucky.
"No, no, just name anyone else"Rajini says
.."President Obama",Amitabh quickly retorts
..."Yes",Rajini says, "I know him."
And off they go.
At the White House, Obama spotsRajini on the tour and motions him, saying :----
"Rajini, what a surprise, I was just on my way to a meeting, but you and your friend come on in and let's have a cup of coffee first and
Catch up".
Well,AmitabhBachchan is much shaken by now, but still not totally convinced.
After they leave the White House grounds, he implores him to name anyone else.
"The Pope,"AmitabhBachan replies
..."Sure!" says Rajini,
"My folks are from Italy and I've known the Pope a long time".
Rajini and Amitabh are assembled with the masses in Vatican Square when Rajini says,
"This will never work.
