Youth Rajinikanth was born on December 12, 1950 to a Maratha family in Bangalore, Mysore State (now Karnataka). His mother was a housewife, and his father Ramoji Rao Gaekwad, a police officer, he was named Shivaji Rao Gaekwad after Chhatrapati Shivaji, a Maratha warrior king, and was raised speaking of Marathi at home and Kannada at outside.

Rajinikanth began his film career through the Tamil film Apoorva Raagangal (1975). Balachander gave Rajinikanth a relatively minor role as an abusive husband of Srividya. The film was controversial when it was released, as it explored the relationships between people with large age differences. He has received much praise from critics and has won three national film awards, including the Best Tamil Film Award at the following year's ceremony. A critic of The Hindu noted that: "The newcomer Rajinikanth is dignified and impressive". He followed this with Katha Sangama (January 1975), an experimental film directed by Puttanna Kanagal in the new wave style The film was a portmanteau of three short stories in which Rajinikanth was playing a small character in the last segment where he appears as a village ruffian who rapes a blind woman in the absence of her husband. His next release was Anthuleni Katha, a Telugu film directed by Balachander. In a remake of his own tamal movie, Aval Oru Thodar Kathai (1974), Balachander played Rajinikanth a key role for the first time in his career.

In Moondru Mudichu - the first film to feature him - he plays a character who "rolls cheerfully" when his friend accidentally drowns in the lake to satisfy his desire to marry the former girlfriend.
