Superstar Rajinikanth will be turning 65 on this December 12th. Every year, many of his admirers and supporters celebrate the day as a festival with various activities across the state and they have already sketched out huge plans for this year as well.

The latest update from close sources to Rajinikanth reveals that the actor has requested all his fans and family members to stay away from the celebrations due to the heartbreak caused by the unprecedented floods which have wreaked havoc and paralysed the daily life in Tamil Nadu.

Rajinikanth, who is presently in Goa shooting for his next film Kabali, has donated 10 Lakhs to the victims and also appealed to all his fans to take active participation in the rescue operations to help the affected people. There were reports that the formal launch of Robot 2 will also take place on his birthday, but it is now believed that there might be a deferment on the event.
