On Christmas 2020, superstar Rajinikanth was admitted to Apollo Hospital in Hyderabad due to fluctuating blood pressure. Apart from fluctuating blood pressure and exhaustion, the actor did not show any other symptoms. The actor was in the city to shoot for Annaatthe which was halted after one of the crew members tested positive for COVID-19. So, it was a cause of worry for fans of the actor as well. But a COVID-19 infection was ruled out early on, as Rajinikanth did not show any symptoms pertaining to the disease, as per reports. Rajinikanth Hospitalised in Hyderabad Over 'Severe Fluctuation' in Blood Pressure Levels.
