Comments of Rajinikanth stroking Yogi Adityanath’s feet online include the words “shocking” and “cringeworthy”
Actor Rajnikanth was welcomed by Uttar Pradesh’s chief minister, Yogi Adityanath, at his house in Lucknow on Saturday. According to some social media users, Rajinikanth and Yogi Adityanath’s interaction was “shocking” and “cringeworthy” in a video showing Rajinikanth congratulating Yogi Adityanath and patting his feet.
On Friday, Rajinikanth traveled to Lucknow to attend the Jailer movie premiere. Pictures and videos of Rajinikanth’s chat with Yogi Adityanath on Saturday were widely shared on social media.
When the UP CM exited the vehicle, the actor gave him a Namaste and patted his feet before giving him a flower. After that, they posed for photos as a pair.
A user on Twitter or X called it “the biggest facepalm and cringefest video of the month.” Another person said that Rajinikanth is a disgrace to Tamil Nadu. Losing regard for oneself has never been a goal of spirituality. Another tweet said, “What a fall!! Yogi Adityanath, who is 51 years old, is touched by the 72-year-old Rajinikanth. Also written was “This is shocking!”
In Lucknow, Rajinikanth also visited Akhilesh Yadav’s home and spoke with the head of the Samajwadi Party. Rajinikanth informed the assembled reporters that he had not seen him in nine years. Akhilesh also posted images of the movie actor on his social media pages. Along with the pictures, Akhilesh wrote in Hindi, “When hearts connect, people hug. The joy I used to have when I saw Rajinikanth ji on film during my engineering studies in Mysore is still present.
“I met Akhilesh Yadav nine years ago at a ceremony in Mumbai, and we have been friends ever since,” Rajinikanth said in a statement to reporters. On the phone, we converse.
When asked about his meeting with Uttar Pradesh’s chief minister Yogi Adityanath, Rajinikanth said, “Bohut badhiya, accha laga (It was great, I felt good).”
Rajinikanth has already been to Ranchi, Jharkhand. On Friday, he went to the well-known Chhinnamasta Temple and prayed. At Ranchi’s Yagoda Ashram, he met Jharkhand Governor C P Radhakrishnan and meditated for an hour.
