A player Dhanush marked his 43rd birthday with a special celebration together with his fans, where a huge blood donation camp brought together hundreds of supporters. Although the charity event shows the solidarity he shares with his favorite groups, his emotional speech became the biggest story on the internet. The full video of his address has now surfaced on social media, with fans praising his heartfelt words about honesty, compassion, and the unforgettable memories that shaped his childhood.
Dhanush appreciates his fans, calling them the pillars of his journey
Speaking at the event, Dhanush answered questions about the big fan event and revealed that it was not a sudden move. “Some people ask why we have gathered like this now. But this is not something new, we have successfully organized a blood donation camp in 2019. Is this an emergency meeting? In 2002, you welcomed a normal, thin boy as one of you. You lifted me up, you stood by me in every joy and trouble, and you have been the guiding lights of my life. Regardless of who comes or goes, or what anyone says, for the past 24 years you have been pillars standing by my side. This is not just a crowd. This is my Asuran family,” he said, as reported by Cinema Vikatan. He also thanked his fans for spreading positivity, adding, “My fans do not spread rumors or falsehoods on the Internet. They spread love. When people give us love, we love back. Even if they give us hate, our response will always be love.
Dhanush shares an interesting childhood story
The actor then opened up about his earliest memories of celebrating a birthday, revealing that he didn’t even know his birthday when he was at school. “July 28 is another day. When I was at school, I saw my classmates coming with new clothes and giving me chocolates on their birthday. Until the third or fourth grade, I didn’t know what my birthday was. I told my sister that I want to wear colorful clothes and have fun like everyone else. She spoke to my parents and told me that July 28 was my birthday,” Dhanush also said that his sister encouraged their parents to buy her a new dress and spent her money on chocolates, which made the day one of the happiest days of her childhood.
Dhanush says the fans made his birthday more special than ever
Concluding his speech, Dhanush admitted that he gradually lost interest in birthday celebrations as he grew up. But seeing thousands of fans celebrating his special day together made him happy. “Over the years, I stopped enjoying birthdays. The birthday that I celebrated alone is now celebrated by all of you. I don’t know if you are this happy even on your birthday. I don’t know what good I have done to deserve this love or how I can repay it. Other than saying ‘thank you,’ I don’t know what else to give you,” he said. His emotional words have gone viral, with many fans calling it one of his most genuine and heartfelt speeches in recent years.
