"Many years ago, in the holy month of December, a star guided three wise men to Jerusalem," His Holiness spoke from the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City.
Pope Benedict XVI had a clear and strong voice for his age. Strong enough for him to be audible to the last person standing in the crowd which had gathered below to have a glimpse of him. Still, it wouldn't hurt to use a microphone.
He wore a....well you know what a Pope wears.
He continued "Today, I wish the star a very Happy Birthday". The crowd roared, though not sure what he meant. It was not the 25th of December yet - Thirteen more days to go!
He then raised his right arm as the crowd roared even more.
He made a symbol with his right hand fist. Only a select few recognized what the symbol was. He held the pose for a while and screamed a word that the crowd didn't comprehend at all. It was not German, not French, not Italian either, but it was the Tamil word.
The word that millions in south Asia scream every time the 'star' hits the silver screen.
The Pope closed his eyes, breathed in and yelled again, this time even more fiercely... "Thalaivaaa....". The crowd imitated the pose repeated in chorus.

P.S - In case, it isn't apparent...I'm just kidding!
