As per the translation, the actor continued, “Westerners turn to India because they do not find happiness and peace in their traditions and culture. They say this is where they will find peace and joy and practice meditation, yoga, and natural living.”

Moreover, the superstar also congratulated his wife for her efforts in creating awareness and explained how he prays her efforts would be graced by God.

Rajinikanth made headlines recently after it was reported that Nandamuri Balakrishna is rumored to play a cameo in Jailer 2. While it hasn’t been officially confirmed, the superstar is expected to make a special appearance similar to how Shiva Rajkumar and Mohanlal did in the first installment.
