Rajnikanth Paid Off All His Income Tax

Even as Sun Pictures stepped in as the producer of his ‘Enthiran: The Robot’ a couple of years ago, superstar Rajnikanth had announced that he won’t be taking any payment as fee from the company till the film was completed. True to his stature and image, the superstar kept up his word and took his payment only recently, after the theatrical release of the film worldwide on 1st October.

Rajni, typical of a ‘perfect’ and law-abiding citizen, had reportedly paid off all his Income Tax and took the fee. Rajni is among the few actors in the country who pay their taxes promptly and in time. Sources close to the Sun network said that Rajni took his money in an ‘accountable’ manner (sans any ‘black money’) and paid his taxes promptly before taking the payment.

Rajni didn’t even demand the ‘distribution’ rights of some specific distribution areas as he had done earlier. Kalanithi Maran, who runs Sun Network, is said to have fulfilled Rajni’s wishes by deducting the taxes and paying them before paying the fee to Rajnikanth.

Hats off to Rajni!
