If milk baths and aartis welcome a Rajnikanth movie on the first day of its release, morbid tributes to God are done after the film becomes a box office hit.
To ward off the evil eye after Kabali's smashing success fans in Tamil Nadu sacrificed goats as an offering to God.
With the movie crossing the 500-crore rupee mark in box office collections within two weeks of its release, it seems that fans believe a few heads have to roll to keep away the bad omen. The film is running at most theatres housefull even after two weeks.
Along with Rajinikanth, the film features Radhika Aptey and is set in Malaysia where a gangster fights for the Tamils settled there. The film has been directed by Pa. Ranjith.
