Explaining that he would definitely request Tamil Superstar Rajinikanth to act in Kannada when there was a worthy role for him, Kannada Superstar Dr Shiva Rajkumar said that he should not take advantage of Rajinikanth just because he did a role in the Tamil film Jailer.

At a media interaction called to promote his upcoming Kannada film 45, the Kannada megastar was asked if, since the unit of Rajinikanth's Jailer requested him to act in it, he would request Rajinikanth to act in a Kannada film.
