Rajini suffers minor injuries while shooting 'Man vs Wild'

New Delhi: Megastar Rajinikanth reportedly suffered minor injuries on Tuesday when he was shooting for adventurer Bear Grylls's survival show 'Man vs Wild'.

Sources say Rajinikanth suffered minor injury on ankle and bruises on his shoulder. Rajinikanth is the second Indian personality to be featured on 'Man vs Wild' after Prime Minister Narendra Modi appeared on the Discovery Channel programme last year in August.

Widely regarded as one of the most popular actors in South India, Rajinikanth - also known as Thalaivaa (leader) - began shooting for the special episode today in Karnataka's Bandipur National Park.

The national park was established in 1974 as a tiger reserve under Project Tiger.

In a clip shared by news agency ANI, south star Rajinikanth was seen in a blue jacket and grey track pants and was seen carrying a cross-body bag.
