Superstar Rajinikanth was admitted to Apollo Hospitals in Chennai late on Monday night. The 73-year-old was taken to the hospital after experiencing severe stomach pain, reports said.
Sources said that Rajnikanth is likely to undergo an elective procedure on Tuesday. They also confirmed that his condition is stable.
There has been no official statement yet from the hospital or the family.
The 73-year-old actor has been busy with two films – ‘Vettaiyan’ by Director Gnanavel Raja, slated for October 10 release and ‘Coolie’ by Lokesh Kanagaraj. He had returned to Chennai only a few days ago.
A decade ago, the superstar had undergone a kidney transplant in Singapore. A few years ago, he opted out of his much talked about political plunge citing health reasons.
