Rajinikanth Visits Karunanidhi, wishes Speedy Recovery

Chennai, July 31: The Actor-turned-politician Superstar Rajinikanth today visited M Karunanidhi in a private hospital and enquired about his health.

The DMK chief is under intensive care for the fourth consecutive day. Rajinikanth said he prayed for the speedy recovery of the DMK chief.

"Kalaignar is a very senior political leader. He is now asleep," he told reporters outside Kauvery Hospital, where Karunanidhi is admitted since Saturday.

Rajinikanth said he met the nonagenarian leader's family members including DMK working president M K Stalin, M K Alagiri and party Rajya Sabha member Kanimozhi and enquired about the leader's health.

The actor, who was out of the city for a film shoot, arrived tonight by a flight from Mumbai.

A press release from the hospital in the evening said, "An extended period of hospitalization will be necessary due to age-related overall decline in his general health, altered liver function, and hematological (blood-related) parameters."

Mr. Karunanidhi continues to maintain his vital signs with active medical support, the bulletin added.

The DMK patriarch was admitted to the hospital on July 28 with a drop in blood pressure, where he was resuscitated and stabilized in the ICU and managed by a team of doctors and nurses.
