Their unique bond, which transcends the typical boundaries of family ties, is a testament to the profound impact that Rajinikanth has had on not just Indian cinema, but also on the lives of countless individuals like Dhanush.

Today, December 12th, the renowned actor Rajinikanth is turning 74 years old. Fans nationwide, as well as many of his co-stars, have been expressing warm birthday wishes for him on social media platforms. Among these well-wishers is Dhanush, a previous family member of his.

On his former platform, known as Twitter, Dhanush posted a heartfelt birthday message to Rajinikanth.

For those not in the know, Dhanush was previously married to Aishwaryaa Rajinikanth, who is the daughter of renowned actor Rajinikanth. The couple parted ways in 2022 and made their separation public via a post on social media.

Regardless, Dhanush maintains an admirable bond with his previous father-in-law, whom he holds in equally high esteem as a source of lifelong inspiration. In numerous interviews, Dhanush has openly discussed the influential figure that Rajinikanth has been in Indian cinema, leaving an enduring impact for countless individuals to emulate.

Indeed, Rajinikanth has frequently commended Dhanush for his exceptional character. For example, during an interview in 2018, the legendary actor lavished praise on his son-in-law, highlighting him as a remarkable individual who is deeply devoted to his spouse, children, and family.

He had said, “Dhanush is a wonderful boy. He respects his parents and considers them God. He takes care of his wife. He is a good father, a good son-in-law, a good man, a good talent.”

Today marks Rajinikanth’s birthday, and he has been inundated with well-wishes and messages not only from fans but also esteemed figures within the film industry.
