Rajinikanth and his yearly trips to Himalayas: Unseen pics of the actor from across the years
Rajinikanth is an actor from India who is quite well-known. People remember him as a great actor who was quite well-known. When the megastar isn't in the spotlight and surrounded by fans, though, he exhibits a different side of himself: the side that wants to learn more about spirituality. For years, Rajinikanth has gone back to the Himalayas to get away from the bustling world of superstars and rediscover peace of mind again.
Not Rajinikanth, but Shivaji Rao The best thing about Rajinikanth's excursions to the Himalayas is how easy they are. He goes to a place as Shivaji Rao Gaekwad, not as a well-known person. People who have encountered him report that he sleeps in simple lodges or ashrams, wears basic clothes, and travels without bodyguards or other benefits that come with being famous. He is not a well-known actor; he is just a person going through the mountains looking for peace.
