“What are you willing to do for your favourite superstar?”

At the point when the trailer for Rajinikanth’s up and coming film Kabali was released on 30 April, it practically broke the internet. The number of views, shares and the mass hysteria this film has generated has been dubbed ‘Kabali mania’.

In any case, after a couple hiccups, when it was declared that the film would be released on 22 July, the obsession went to a whole new level with the number of discounts, schemes and idol-worship-fuelled offers in the market.

There are so many of these that there might come a time we’ll look back and ask, “Wow, did that really happen?” Here are some offers that prove Kabali mania is, currently, at its peak.

1. Puducherry is offering the only incentive one would need to construct a toilet

The Puducherry government has offered residents of Sellipet panchayat free tickets for the film Kabali if they construct toilets in their homes. The state government took this step after they found that almost 58 per cent of the residents in Sellipet village were defecating in open spaces. BJP leader and former IPS officer Kiran Bedi who was recently appointed as the Lt Governor, tweeted that the government’s innovative idea was working.

2. AirAsia has introduced ‘Rajini class’ (sure beats business class)

Low-cost carrier AirAsia signed an agreement to become the airline partner forKabali and announced a special flight to Chennai for the film. The fan who wanted to watch the film first day, first show in Chennai would have to pay ₹7,860 for the package which would be inclusive of the flight ticket, a movie ticket, an audio CD,Kabali merchandise, breakfast, lunch and snacks.

3. Airtel is totally taking advantage of the fan-frenzy

5. Workplaces have figured out a way to make their in-house Rajinikanth fans happy

Chennai-based new businesses have begun booking movie halls so that their staff can get the first show of the film, on the first day. Actually, a few firms brag of the way that they had done likewise for Rajinikanth’s last few movies too.

6. Some luxury hotels in Bengaluru are doubling up as movie theatres for the weekend
