It is very well known that Rajinikanth and Kamal Hassan share a long lasting bond even as their fans were waging wars against each other until the last decade. While Rajnikanth has been honoured with the Padma Vibhushan award, the highest order of the Padma awards, his contemporary star was honored with Padma Shri in 1990.

With Kamal receiving yet another Padma award in the form of Padma Bhushan, that has been confirmed to be conferred upon the Viswaroopam actor on Saturday, expectations grew among fans to know the reaction of Rajinikanth for his friend’s achievement, given the fact that both the stars have complimented each other for their respective achievements in the past.

A question on this regard was posed to Kamal Hassan when he met the press on account of receiving the prestigious Padma Bhushan award. Kamal replied that Rajni was yet to wish him, and he will get his wish only after all others finished conveying their wishes. He also stated that he follows the same principle when it comes to wishing his friend for his achievements.
