Rajinikanth wishes Happy New Year in filmy style
Chennai, January 1
Megastar Rajinikanth on Thursday extended warm New Year greetings but with a filmy twist.
He shared one of the scenes from his film 'Muthu'.
The 18-second clip from Muthu features Rajinikanth riding a chariot with Meena accompanying him. As she asks him if he is taking the correct route, he says, "who knows, trust God, trust your process and keep moving."
"Wishing you all a very Happy New Year 2026. God bless," he captioned the post.
Rajinikanth, affectionately known as "Thalaiva" (leader) by his legion of fans, remains one of the most revered and influential figures in Indian cinema. With a career spanning over four decades, he has starred in numerous films across languages, including Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Hindi, and English.
Some of his memorable movies include 'Shivaji: The Boss', Annaamalai, Thalapathi, Padaiyappa, Robot, Jailer, and others.

Muthu is such a classic! This clip brought back so many childhood memories. Rajini sir's charisma is timeless. Happy New Year to the legend and all his fans worldwide.
As someone relatively new to Indian cinema, I find Rajinikanth's connection with his fans fascinating. This was a creative and heartwarming greeting. The man is a true icon.
Respectfully, while I admire Rajinikanth sir, I wish he had chosen a clip from a more recent film. It feels like the media coverage often focuses on nostalgia rather than his current work or future projects. Still, the message is beautiful.
The man is a phenomenon. From a bus conductor to a megastar worshipped by millions - his journey itself is the best New Year motivation story. #ThalaivaForEver
His humility despite such fame is what I love the most. A simple, thoughtful post instead of some flashy video. Wishing everyone a prosperous 2026! 🎉
