Rajinikanth recently underwent an elective procedure to address swelling in a blood vessel connected to his heart, successfully placing a stent in the aorta.
Fortunately, reports indicate that he is stable and doctors will discharge him from the hospital in the coming days.
Additionally, a specialized medical team conducted the procedure in a catheterization lab.
Prior to his hospitalization, the iconic actor made headlines at the audio launch of his much-anticipated film, ‘Vettaiyan’.
The event showcased his captivating dance moves, delighting fans and attendees alike.

The upcoming film is likely to hit theaters on 10 October, generating immense anticipation among fans.
As Rajinikanth continues to recover, the support from his family, fans, and prominent figures like PM Modi underscores his status as a beloved icon in Indian cinema.
