Super Star Rajni as a screen writter:
The year 1993 also started with a Bollywood movie for Rajni that he acted in the movie Insaniyat ke Devta. Then in the same year, Rajni acted in the Tamil movie Uzhaippali with Tamil actress roja. I still remember that my uncle brought me to this Rajni movie on the first day show when I was a child where the theaters was full of man heads rushing for the tickets...! In the movie ejamaan, Rajni acted as Village Ejaman who is the biggest man in the village fights against betrayer Tamil actor Nepoleon. Then he acted in the movie Valli with Tamil actress Priya Raman, he played the role of Screen writer also for tamil movie Valli.
This is the period we can call that Rajni reduced the number of movies to act in, that he acted only very few movies per year. In the year 1994 Rajni acted in the movie Veera. He acted as a man who struggles to manage two wives in his life. The characters of those two wives had been done by Tamil hot actresses Meena and Roja. the film itself got a great hit and also the songs of this movie got hit too. Then he acted in the ever green Super hit Tamil movie, Baadsha as a don of Mumbai city and in the same movie he acted as an auto driver too. Tamil actress Nagma (who is the sister of Tamil actress Jothika) had done the pairing role of Rajni in this movie. we can expect the remake version of Baadsha as the movie has reached all the Tamil cinema audiences.
In the same year Rajni acted in the Telugu movie Pedharayudu and Hindi movie Munna. Then he came back to Tamil with the movie Muthu. For this movie, Rajni got Tamilnadu state Best actor award and was nominated for Film fare awards. In the same year he acted in a Bengali movie too.

In this movie, Tamil actresses Saundharya and Ramya Krishna had acted. Rajni got Tamilnadu state award for Best actor for this movie. in the year 2002, Rajni acted in the movie Baba by writing Screenplay and producing by himself. Baba made some controversies that it did not done good commercially and Rajni will get struggle to over come this draw back. But our Super Star Rajni LIVE words said in a live speech that “I am a horse not an elephant to stand up late after falling down”. In tamil – Naan yaanai alla. Gudhirai. Vizhundhaal, udaney ezhundhuruven. As he said, he stood up very quickly with his next movie, Chandramukhi. This movie was Super dupper hit that it ran in some Cinema theaters of Tamil nadu for 500 days – a historical run. Following by the great hit of Chandramuki, Rajni was booked by Tamil Director Shankar for his movie, Shivaji. In this movie, Rajni acted with Tamil actress Shriya Saran. Tamil director Shankar had done this movie by admiring each and every movement of Rajni as if he is the number one fan of Rajni in Tamilnadu. Rajni style was the main thing in the movie Shivaji. This movie got Box office hit too. After that, Rajni acted in the movie guselan with Tamil actresses, Nayantara and Meena.
After Kuselan, Rajni acted in a Telugu movie, Kathanavakudu. Then Rajnikanth dedicated his 2 and half years completely for a single Tamil movie, Endhiran under the direction of Shankar. In this movie, Rajni paired with Aishwarya Rai. In this movie Rajni acted as a Robotics scientist who creates a fabulous Robot to assist the Indian Army. The humanoid robot gets the shape of Rajni himself. In the story line, the scientist Rajni prepares the robot for a demo in front of the other scientists who are Robot specialties. As one of those specialties is none other than the mentor of Rajni who has jealous on the scientist Rajni (Dr. Vaseeharan). Then Rajni manages to finish the process of getting the robot ready for working in Indian Army. But in some situations, the robot fails to prove its competent to work in Army.
