Earlier in March, Indian cricket Sanju Samson, who is leading the Rajasthan Royals team in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, met superstar Rajinikanth at his residence. The star cricketer had a once-in-a-lifetime meeting and couldn't stop gushing about it. While he had mentioned that it was in dream for for 21 years since the age of 7, he has now narrated how he got to meet the superstar and about his interaction with Rajinikanth.
Recently again in an interview with a sports channel Sanju Samson revealed that he got a call last year. Narrating the incident, Sanju Samnson said, "It was a special kind of feeling for me. Like I had said on my Instagram post, it was a dream for the last 20 or 21 years to meet him. I was thinking sometime I might meet him at the airport or at some event and click selfies, but I really wanted to go and meet him at his house."
"It became really specially when he called me up last year when we reached the finals of the IPL. His family watch a lot of cricket and they were supporting Rajasthan Royals in the finals. The kids in the family were apparently were fans of RR and so they reached out to me through his manager. I was like I am a huge fans of Rajini sir and how can this happen like this," he added.
"The manager called me up and connected me to Rajinikanth sir and I said, 'Sir, Na unga periya fan' and he responded with his trademark laughter. He then invited me home. It was unbelievable. When I went and met him I told him how special he is to me since my childhood," said Sanju Samson.
While Sanju Samson is currently playing in the IPL 2023, which began on March 31, superstar Rajinikanth is currently shooting for his upcoming film 'Jailer' directed by Nelson Dilipumar.
