Rajinikanth's Ardent Fan Creates 'Vettaiyan' Vinayagar Idol for Vinayagar Chaturthi in Udumalpet

A passionate Rajinikanth fan and potter in Udumalpet, Tiruppur district, has crafted a Vinayagar idol inspired by the actor's upcoming film 'Vettaiyan' for Vinayagar Chaturthi, showcasing his artistic skills and devotion.



Coimbatore: Rajini Ranjith, a potter from Poolavadi near Udumalpet in Tiruppur district, has once again demonstrated his artistic prowess and admiration for superstar Rajinikanth by creating a unique Vinayagar idol. The idol, fashioned after Rajinikanth's character in his upcoming film 'Vettaiyan', has been crafted specially for the Vinayagar Chaturthi festival.

Ranjith, known for his dedication to Rajinikanth, has a history of creating clay sculptures inspired by the actor's films. With each new Rajinikanth movie release, Ranjith has made it a tradition to sculpt idols of key characters from the films, showcasing his talent and devotion to the superstar.

In a notable gesture, Ranjith had previously designed and presented sculptures of Rajinikanth's parents to the actor's residence. Last year, for Vinayagar Chaturthi, he had created a Vinayagar idol inspired by Rajinikanth's 'Jailer' character, which garnered significant attention.

This year, Ranjith has outdone himself with the 'Vettaiyan' Vinayagar, meticulously crafting it to resemble Rajinikanth's look from the upcoming film. Additionally, he has created a Vinayagar idol inspired by actor Dhanush's recent hit film 'Captain Miller', further displaying his versatility as an artist.

Ranjith's creative endeavors have not gone unnoticed, with various quarters expressing appreciation for his unique artistic expressions. His ability to blend religious iconography with popular culture continues to draw admiration from both Rajinikanth fans and art enthusiasts alike.
