Film actor Rajinikanth on August 11 lauded Union Home Minister Amit Shah for revoking Article 370, which gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir (J&K). He also described the Narendra Modi-Amit Shah duo as "Krishna and Arjuna."

"My heartfelt congratulations to Amit Shah for Mission Kashmir. Hats off," he said here at the release of a book chronicling the two years of Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu in office.
