Speaking to ANI as he returned to Chennai on Monday, Rajinikanth explained why he touched the CM’s feet and said it is his ‘habit’ to touch the feet of Yogis or Sanyasis even if they are younger than him. “It is my habit to touch the feet of Yogis or Sanyasis and take their blessings, even if they are younger than me. I have done that only.”

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath shared a picture of him with Rajinikanth on Twitter, now X. He wrote, “Courtesy meeting with eminent film actor Mr. Rajinikanth at my official residence in Lucknow today.”
