Rajinikanth Opens Up About Ego And Spirituality At Bengaluru Event

Rajinikanth recently shared an unforgettable spiritual experience during an event celebrating the 45th anniversary of The Art of Living Ashram and the 70th birthday of spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in Bengaluru. The veteran actor spoke openly about how the visit transformed his thinking about fame, ego, and spirituality. His honest and humorous speech quickly became a viral topic among fans and social media users.

Rajinikanth Says Ashram Visit Changed His Perspective

Speaking at the Bengaluru gathering, Rajinikanth revealed that he originally planned to stay at the Ashram for only two days. However, the peaceful atmosphere and spiritual energy convinced him to extend the stay to nearly 15 days. He described the Ashram as one of his favourite places after the Himalayas, praising its greenery, calm surroundings, and welcoming environment.

The superstar then narrated an incident that deeply impacted him. Rajinikanth said he accompanied Sri Sri Ravi Shankar during a special darshan attended by hundreds of devotees. Since many visitors were from Tamil Nadu, he expected people to recognise him, approach him for photographs, or ask for autographs. Surprisingly, according to the actor, not even a single person noticed him during the gathering.

Spiritual Stardom Is Greater Than Film Fame

Rajinikanth admitted that the experience “crushed his ego” and helped him understand the real meaning of spirituality. He explained that cinema fame may not last forever, but spiritual influence remains permanent and continues even after death. The actor’s comments received loud applause from the audience and later gained massive attention online.

Fans praised Rajinikanth’s simplicity, comic timing, and powerful life lesson about humility. Several celebrities and public figures also appreciated his speech on social media. On the professional front, Rajinikanth recently completed the shooting of “Jailer 2” and is also expected to reunite with Kamal Haasan for an upcoming film project after many years.
