The latest surgery performed on the eve of the release of his latest film Annaatthe has left Rajinikanth’s family extremely concerned about his health.
Many close to him feel it’s time for the Thalaiva to hang his boots.
“But he doesn’t listen to anyone. His wife and daughters are all in favour of a serious slow-down in pace. But he is doing just the opposite. Signing more films. After the blockbuster success of Annaatthe he argues, why should he hang up his boots when his fans still want more and more of him? To this,his family has no reply.He says he wants to continue working till his last breath,” says a close friend and colleague .
Significantly there has been no announcement of a project after Anaatthe.
“Which doesn’t mean he doesn’t have any offers. It only means he is spoilt for choices.Every major director in Tamil Nadu has a script ready for Rajini whenever he says yes,” the long-standing friend informs me.
