Chinni Jayanth is one of the actors and mimicry artistes who likes to follow Rajinikanth.
The actor made his debut under Rajinikanth in Kai Kodukkum Kai.
Chinni Jayanth, after being in the forefront for long, is now moving into production and direction.
Of course, he also hosts a popular mimicry show on a regional television channel.
The show, which helps up and coming mimicry artistes get a break in the film industry, has interestingly proved beneficial to Chinni Jayanth himself.
He has been roped in to play a role in the blockbuster Sivaji now.
Director Shankar, who saw the show, was apparently mighty impressed with the actor and immediately sent out for Chinni Jayanth to act in the movie.
