Rajinikanth’s iconic Raghavendra Mandapam in Chennai has once again become a talking point after reports claimed that the property could be developed into a three-star hotel. While there is no official confirmation yet on whether the entire premises will be converted or whether the reports concern only a portion of the property, an old video of Rajinikanth has brought renewed attention to what the actor had once said about its future.
In the video, Rajinikanth spoke about his plans for the roughly one-and-a-quarter-acre property and explained why he wanted its future earnings to benefit the people of Tamil Nadu rather than his family.
