Popular film actor Rajinikanth’s wife Latha Rajnikanth on Thursday while maintaining that there was no cause for worry, appealed to his fans to give the superstar’s family some privacy and desist from speculating on his health, even as he was shifted to an Intensive Care Unit of a Chennai hospital.
Latha Rajnikanth told a horde of media persons outside the Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre in Chennai that there was no cause of worry due to the superstar’s health and Rajinikanth was fine and responding well to the treatment being given to him. She also added that the popular actor was “shifted from a private room to the ICU because it is a sterile place.” The actor’s wife added that he was being given complete medical attention for his infection. “We are taking good care of him and there is no cause for worry,” she said. “Please treat him like you would treat any other human being. He is a normal human being. Please do not speculate about his health and give our family some privacy,” Latha urged.
Latha’s appeal came after rumours that the 61-year-old actor was put on dialysis started making rounds, sending his legions of fans in frenzy. However, Chairman and Director of the Shri Ramachandra Medical Centre S Thanikachalam denied that there is any truth to these rumours.
He said that, “a gastro-intestinal infection has led to gastric and respiratory problem. He has been put under observation and to monitor his breathing problem. Apart from this, Rajinikanth is cheerful. He is eating normally and had two idlis and a wada today. He is also cracking jokes.” Dr Thanikachalam added that the superstar has also spoken to his family. The hospital director further added that, "A team of expert doctors are looking after. Rajinikanth is a hale and healthy man.”
The superstar was admitted to the Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre on May 13. He was earlier admitted to hospital on April 29, the first day of shoot of his new film 'Rana' and then, on May 4. Earlier, the doctors had removed some fluid from his chest which was creating difficulties in his breathing. Meanwhile, his fans have been organizing special prayers for his health, even as his fellow actors and friends have been wishing him a speedy recovery.
