Superstar Rajinikanth made his first public appearance following a recent health scare, as he celebrated the success of his latest film, Vettaiyan.
The actor, who underwent a non-invasive heart procedure on October 3, looked healthy and in good spirits during the gathering with the film's team. This marks his first appearance after being discharged from a hospital in Chennai earlier this month.
Vettaiyan, directed by TJ Gnanavel, has enjoyed tremendous success since its release on October 10. In just four days, the film grossed over Rs 240 crore worldwide, making it a box-office sensation.
Despite a sharp decline in collections on Monday, October 14, the film's impressive opening week earnings prompted a celebratory gathering with Rajinikanth, director Gnanavel, music composer Anirudh Ravichander, and the producers.
Fans of Rajinikanth, also known as "Thalaivar," were thrilled to see the iconic actor in good health after his recent hospital visit. Social media was flooded with messages from admirers expressing relief and joy over his recovery and return to the limelight. The actor's ability to recover quickly and join his team in celebrating the film's success reaffirmed his enduring connection with his fans.
Vettaiyan, an action-packed drama, features a star-studded cast including Rajinikanth, Amitabh Bachchan, Dushara Vijayan, Rana Daggubati, Fahadh Faasil, Ritika Singh, and Manju Warrier in pivotal roles.
The film's technical crew includes composer Anirudh Ravichander, editor Philomin Raj, and cinematographer SR Kathir, who contributed to the film's strong production values.
Although Vettaiyan received mixed reviews from critics and audiences, its strong box office performance in the opening weekend solidified its position as a commercial hit.
Rajinikanth’s celebration with the team marks a significant moment, both for the film's success and his triumphant return to public life after his health scare.
