The unexpected moment quickly went viral after a video captured the reactions of stunned passengers. As soon as fans noticed him, excitement filled the cabin with people waving, cheering, and calling out “Thalaiva” to get his attention.

Fans eagerly await his upcoming projects, including Lokesh Kanagaraj’s much-hyped 'Coolie' and Nelson Dilipkumar’s 'Jailer 2'. Whether on-screen or off, Rajinikanth continues to win hearts with his natural charm and humility.
