Hyderabad: The Apollo Hospital, where actor Rajinikanth is currently getting treated for fluctuations in his blood pressure, announced on Saturday that the actor is stable.

"Rajinikanth is stable. Reports of some of the investigations done have come and there's nothing alarming. Based on reports of remaining investigations and his blood pressure status, a decision will be taken on his discharge from hospital on Sunday," according to hospital sources.

"Rajnikanth who was admitted in the hospital on Friday is progressing well. He has had an uneventful night and his blood pressure is still on the higher side although under better control," the sources said.

The 'Kabali' actor had been shooting for 'Annaatthe' in Hyderabad for the last few days. The shoot halted after some crew members tested positive for the novel coronavirus. While the superstar tested negative, a couple of people from the sets of the film had tested positive for Covid-19, following which he isolated himself and was being monitored closely.
