Superstar Rajinikanth has once again embarked on a spiritual journey to the Himalayas, with photos of his travels going viral on social media. The actor, known for his profound spiritual inclinations, is currently staying at an ashram in Rishikesh and is expected to visit Badrinath and the sacred Baba's Cave.
This trip continues Rajinikanth's tradition of taking breaks from his acting career to reconnect with his spiritual side in the Himalayas. He often seeks peace and clarity in the mountains. In Rishikesh, he paid tribute to Swami Dayananda at Swami Dayananda Ashram. He also meditated along the banks of the Ganga and participated in the Ganga Aarti. Following his time in Rishikesh, Rajinikanth traveled to Dwarahat.
Images circulating online show Rajinikanth embracing a simple life, including one where he is seen eating food served on a pattal (disposable leaf plate) by the roadside. Dressed in simple white clothes, he is seen in other photos conversing with people at the ashram and offering respects alongside a priest. Fans have expressed admiration for his humility and down-to-earth nature, with many praising his simplicity. Social media users have lauded him for remaining humble and grounded.
Rajinikanth's spiritual endeavors extend beyond India. He recently visited the BAPS Hindu Mandir in Abu Dhabi, where he sought blessings. He was also granted the UAE's Golden Visa.
In related news, Rajinikanth recently completed filming for his 170th film, 'Vettaiyan', directed by TJ Gnanavel, which is slated for release in October. He also starred in 'Coolie' which was released earlier this August and collected ₹500 crore globally, though it received mixed reviews. His next film, 'Jailer 2', is scheduled for release in June 2026.
