Talking about shooting of his movie 'Johnny', Rajinikanth revealed that music composer Ilaiyaraaja once drank half a bottle of beer and started asking about gossip related to actresses. "The antics Ilaiyaraaja got up to after that...we couldn’t believe it. It went on until 3 am. Even when...[director] Mahendran tried to steer...conversation back to music, Ilaiyaraaja didn’t allow it," he stated.
