Rajnikanth who is currently recuperating at a Singapore hospital; apparent went to the place on the advice of his friend Amitabh Bachchan. The two legends who have been the thick of friends since the 80s, have always been good support systems to each others. In a field like Bollywood that is marred by cut-throat competition and changing equations, the friendship between these actors that have stood the test of time, has been quite exemplary.They first worked together in the 80s hit, Andha Kanoon and then later on went to do Giraftaar and Hum.
Last week, Rajnikanth who was taken ill for exhaustion; was found to be diagnosed with renal failure that led to complications in the kidney. He was quickly taken to Singapore hospital for further treatment where he is presently recuperating. Less people know that it was Big B, who has constantly been in touch with Rajnikanth’s wife Latha and his doctors; and had suggested them to get the superstar treated at the Singapore hospital, which he believes is the best for such types of ailments. Big B also personally talked to the team of doctors in the hospital.
Bachchan knows this because his friend Amar Singh had kidney transplant done in Mount Elizabeth Hospital in 2009, He was impressed with the treatment because it was not only superior but quicker too. So the actor recommended Latha without a shred of doubt to take the Robot star out of the country for treatment.
