Superstar Rajinikanth, accompanied by younger daughter Soundarya Ashwin, hogged all attention at 'Classic Incantations', a musical concert performed in Chennai on Thursday night by a German orchestra, in association with A R Rahman.

As soon as the 'Thalaivar' made an entry, the audiences were unable to control their excitement. Whistles and claps filled the air and it took some time for the crowd to settle and enjoy the mellifluous music on that euphonical evening.

The German Orchestra gave a new touch to Rahman's songs and it was a delight for music lovers to listen to the performance. Songs from 'Enthiran', 'Bombay’, 'Padayappa', ‘Roja’ and ‘Lagaan’ were performed.

The program was to celebrate 60 years of diplomatic relations between India and Germany. And also to celebrate the centenary year of Studio Babelsberg, a film studio located in Germany. After starting its tour in Mumbai, the orchestra then traveled to Delhi, Kolkata, Bangalore, before landing in Chennai.
