Actor Mirnaa is basking in the success of Jailer, which has become the biggest hit in her career . In a recent interview, she recalled her experience of shooting with Superstar Rajinikanth. 

In Jailer, Mirnaa plays the role named Swetha, who is the daughter-in-law of Muthuvel Pandian, played by Rajinikanth. Even though she only appears for a brief time on screen, given that Rajinikanth commands all our attention from start to finish, she made her presence felt with her convincing performance in the given role. 

Mirnaa recalled that most of her combination scene with Rajinikanth was shot in the living room set. And during the shot break, she found out about Rajinikath's favourite TV show that he was binge-watching on the sets. "He told me that he was watching Breaking Bad in between the shots," Mirnaa said during an interview. 

She noted on hearing that she expressed surprise over Rajinikanth's interest in TV series. Rajinikanth revealed that he started watching the series as people recommended it to him. But, soon he got hooked on the series and became a big fan. "He said, the series is of a different level," she added. 

Created by Vince Gilligan, Breaking Bad is a cornerstone in the history of US television. The popularity of the show transcended the culture and language barriers.

Starring Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul in the lead roles, Breaking Bad tells the story of an overqualified high-school chemistry teacher. Bryan Cranston's Walter White, however, uses his knowledge in chemistry to produce high-grade meth, a narcotic drug, after he gets diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer. He enters the drug cartel to make some money to secure the future of his family in the aftermath of his impending death, but slowly he grows into a ruthless drug kingpin. 

Breaking Bad has been a main source of inspiration for Nelson's filmography. The core plot of his directorial debut movie Kolamaavu Kokila was taken from this hit series. The Tamil movie tells the story of an poor girl, who becomes a drug mule to make money for her mother's cancer treatment.
