When asked about his expectations for the next five years, Rajinikanth expressed optimism, stating that he anticipates good governance.

Narendra Modi will be sworn in as Prime Minister for the third consecutive term on Sunday, June 9, following the NDA’s majority win in the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections. The grand event is set to begin at 7:15 pm at the Rashtrapati Bhavan’s Forecourt.

According to officials, over 8,000 guests, including various professionals and cultural performers, will attend the ceremony. The guest list has been kept compact, considering the upcoming G7 meeting in Italy, which Modi will attend later in the week, reported ANI, citing sources. After the ceremony, President Droupadi Murmu will host a banquet for the dignitaries at Rashtrapati Bhavan.

On the professional front, Rajinikanth has an exciting lineup of films. He will soon be seen in TJ Gnanavel’s Vettaiyan, set for an October release, co-starring Amitabh Bachchan, Fahadh Faasil, and Rana Daggubati. Additionally, he will resume shooting for Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie. The film’s announcement teaser has already received a positive response from fans.
