Rajinikanth was hospitalized last week where he was diagnosed of dehydration and food poisoning.
Though the superstar was discharged with doctors prescribing complete rest, he had to be admitted to the hospital again on Wednesday after he complained of breathlessness and fever.
The press and fans gathered outside the St Isabel's Hospital in Chennai ever since Rajni was admitted. To their respite, Rajni's daughter Aishwarya and son-in-law Dhanush updated them about the megastar's health.
Though the star is in the ICU he is said to be responding well to the treatment. Dhanush and Aishwarya addressed the press in the morning and revealed that Rajni suffered from allergic bronchitis but is now stable. They also said that the doctors advise him complete rest for the next several days.
Dhanush also said that Thalaivar will join the Rana unit only after the doctors give him the go ahead.
