Superstar Rajinikanth hospitalized ahead of Vettaiyan trailer launch; to undergo elective procedure

Superstar Rajinikanth was admitted to a private hospital in Chennai on Monday, September 30. Reports suggested that the Vettaiyan actor will undergo an elective procedure today, October 1. Fortunately, his health condition is stable. 

According to a CNN-News18 report, Rajinikanth was rushed to the Apollo Hospital in Chennai after he experienced a severe stomach ache. The report further stated that the Jailer actor will undergo the elective procedure under interventional cardiologist Dr. Sai Satish. When contacted for an update on Thalaivar’s health, his wife Latha said, “All is well.”

After hearing about Rajinikanth’s health condition, Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu MK Stalin took to his social media handle to wish for his speedy recovery. He wrote, “Hospitalized friend Superstar Mr. @rajinikanth I wish them a speedy recovery.”

Check out his post below:

In 2020, Rajinikanth was hospitalized after fluctuations in his blood pressure, reportedly due to hypertension. He was later discharged from the hospital after his BP stabilized. He was advised by the doctors to get a week’s rest.

Back then, the hospital also issued a statement that read, “Mr. Rajinikanth was tested on December 22 for COVID-19, and he was negative. Since then, he isolated himself and was monitored closely. Though he did not have any symptoms of Covid-19, his blood pressure showed severe fluctuations and needed further evaluation, for which he has been admitted to the hospital. He will be investigated and monitored closely in the hospital till his blood pressure settles down before being discharged. Apart from fluctuating blood pressure and exhaustion he does not have any other symptoms and is hemodynamically stable.”

Meanwhile, Thalaivar also had a kidney transplant back in 2016.

On the work front, Rajinikanth was looking forward to the grand trailer launch of his upcoming film Vettaiyan. The movie will hit the big screens on October 10, coinciding with the Dussehra festival. Vettaiyan also features Amitabh Bachchan and Fahadh Faasil in prominent roles.

Why Is Sadhguru Encouraging Women To Live Like Hermits, Asks High Court

When spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev got his own daughter married, why is he encouraging young women to tonsure their heads and renounce worldly lives to live like hermits, the Madras High Court has questioned.

A bench of Justices SM Subramaniam and V Sivagnanam posed the question for the Isha Foundation founder after a retired professor alleged that his two well-educated daughters had been “brainwashed” into permanently staying at the Isha Yoga Centre.

S Kamaraj, who used to teach at the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University in Coimbatore, had filed a petition seeking the appearance of his daughters in person in the court.

The two women, aged 42 and 39, who appeared in the court on Monday, said they were staying at the Isha Foundation out of their own will and were not being detained.

The women had given similar testimonies in the past in the decade-old case after their parents claimed their lives had become “hell” since they “abandoned” them.

The judges, however, decided to probe the case further and directed the cops to compile a list of all cases related to the Isha Foundation.

“We want to know why a person who had given his daughter in marriage and made her settle well in life is encouraging the daughters of others to tonsure their heads and live the life of a hermitess,” said Justice Sivagnanam.

The Isha Foundation asserted that the women choose to stay with them voluntarily.

“We believe that adult individuals have the freedom and wisdom to choose their paths. We do not impose marriage or monkhood, as these are personal choices. The Isha Yoga Centre accommodates thousands who are not monks, alongside a few who have embraced Brahmacharya or monkhood,” they said.

It also submitted it has only one pending police case while another was stayed by the court.
