‘Rajini Jaisa Koi Nahi,’ declares Poonam Dhillon.
The actress shared a pic from the movie John Jani Janardhan on her Insta feed in March and revealed, ‘This unassuming gentleman is a #superstar but the humblest nicest person I worked with. Did few films with him but both of us were too shy to chat too much !! Totally admire his real life humility and on screen charisma.’
