Superstar Rajinikanth returned to Chennai late last night amid a lot of fanfare. He was greeted at the airport by a huge crowd of his fans and the media. Last month, he flew to the United States along with his wife Latha to undergo his regular health check-ups. He was once spotted coming out of Mayo Clinic along with his daughter Aishwarya Dhanush. Rajinikanth was seen wearing a blue shirt, black cap and a face mask as he walked towards his car. He waved to the fans who gathered at the airport entrance to see him and thanked them.
Rajinikanth will rest for a few days in Chennai and is thrilled about getting back to work. He will resume the shooting of his upcoming film, Annaatthe, in July. The majority of the film was completed much before the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic hit India. The 70-year-old superstar shot non-stop for 35 days in the safe confines of a bio-bubble to complete the final leg of the shoot without further delay. The post-production work on the film is going on, and it is expected to open in theatres during the Deepavali holiday. Written and directed by Siva, the film also stars Nayanthara, Keerthy Suresh, Khushboo and Prakash Raj.
