The long-delayed moment in cinematic history finally happened when two superstars - Rajinikanth and Shah Rukh Khan - shot together for 'Ra.One' at Subhash Ghai's Whistling Woods studio.
The mighty Tamil icon arrived with his younger daughter Soundarya who single-handedly made the historic scene possible. The rest of Rajinikanth's family was apparently totally against his one-day break from his sabbatical and the process of recuperation.
In fact, Rajinikanth's elder daughter Aishwarya categorically told this writer a few days ago that the super icon was not shooting for 'Ra.One'!
But Rajini did arrive here Sunday with Soundarya and her team of technicians.
In the afternoon, the megastar and his team headed for Ghai's studio and shot the scene amidst an environment of incredible bonhomie.
Shah Rukh then bid goodbye to the semi-ailing Chennai God.
King Khan and his 'Ra.One' team later headed straight for the studios to put the scene in place.
'Ra.One' now stands officially complete.
Sound designer Resul Pookutty took time off from post-production of 'Ra.One' to describe the 'humbling, inspiring, overwhelming experience' of watching the two superstars shoot together.
'The shooting went off like a dream. Watching Rajini Sir and SRK together was indeed a dream come true. The shooting went off so gracefully and with so much finesse. This is truly a great tribute from one superstar to an icon,' said Resul.
