Sudhanshu Pandey's fanboy time with Rajinikanth

After a long spell, actor Sudhanshu Pandey is once again making waves as the evil scientist in the newly released film, '

2.0

'. For those wondering where the singer-actor disappeared some time ago, we've learnt that he has been busy playing villains in South films and is quite happy about it. In an interview with a daily, he said that was quite happy playing the villain as the character is treated as equal to the leading man in South films.

However, '2.0' is a special film for him as it gave him an opportunity to work with his favourite, Rajinikanth. Calling him more than a superstar, Sudhanshu reportedly said that there is so much more to the senior actor. Recalling the first time he met the demi-god on the film set, he was star-struck by his aura. A huge fan of Rajinikanth since the time he saw '

Andha Kanoon

', Sudhanshu could not believe that he was sharing screen space with his idol. While both bonded over topics of spirituality and Lord Shiva, the senior actor gifted Sudhanshu a book on the

Himalayas
