Rajinikanth’s Heartfelt Reunion at Former Bus Depot: Nostalgic Visit to BMTC Stand, Touching Moments with Staff
Superstar Rajinikanth surprised many with a nostalgic visit to the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) bus stand, where he once worked as a bus conductor. The 72-year-old actor spent a brief but heartwarming time connecting with thrilled BMTC drivers, conductors, and staff at Jayanagar.
Rajinikanth, previously Shivaji Rao Gaikwad, had commenced his journey as a bus conductor in the city before Tamil film legend K Balachander discovered him. Balachander gave him his big break in the successful film Aboorva Ragangal in 1975, a movie that also featured Kamal Haasan among others. Upon his appearance, the Traffic Transit Management Center (TTMC) staff warmly greeted Rajinikanth and engaged with him. They conversed, clicked selfies, and shared the moment.
