Rumours about Rajnikanth’s ill-health spike

Rumours about the health of actor Rajnikanth, who is currently in the US on vacation, sent his fans into a tizzy on Thursday, but the actor’s office assured he was fine.

“He is taking rest in the U.S. He is happy and is vacationing with his family. There is no need to believe rumours,” his publicist said.

As it was night in the U.S. now, the actor may take to Twitter to reach out to his fans later; he said adding that false news about the Kabali star had been flashed in some online portal.

The ‘rumours’ about their icon’s health caused concern among his fans who took to social media, flooding it with enquiries about him.

The 65-year-old actor, who was recently honoured with Padma Vibushan, has finished his soon to be released Kabali and is likely to take up ace director Shankar’s 2.0, a sequel to the duo’s earlier hit Enthiran.
