Chennai, October 3: Superstar Rajinikanth, who was recently admitted to a private hospital in Chennai, is expected to be discharged tomorrow, as confirmed by the medical team attending to him.
Rajinikanth was taken to Apollo Hospital earlier this week due to swelling in a blood vessel that connects to his heart.
He underwent a non-surgical procedure called transcatheter treatment to address the issue. The procedure was performed by senior interventional cardiologist Dr. Sai Satish, who placed a stent in the aorta, successfully sealing off the swelling through a process known as Endovascular Repair.
Previously, it was reported that Rajinikanth would be discharged on Thursday. However, the doctors have now stated that he will be leaving the hospital on Friday.
The hospital’s statement says that Superstar is in stable condition and doing well post-surgery. His medical team also thanked his fans and well-wishers for their support and concern during this period.
Rajinikanth’s health has been a matter of public concern in recent years.
In 2020, he was admitted to a private hospital due to fluctuations in his blood pressure, which led to a brief hospitalization and a month-long rest period.
In 2021, he also underwent a carotid artery revascularization procedure. Despite these health challenges, Rajinikanth has continued to work on various film projects and remains an active figure in the industry.
