After actor Rajinikanth touches feet of Yogi Adityanath, Akhilesh posts picture hugging South Indian superstar

In an interesting publicity fight involving Yogi Adityanath and Samjawadi Party Chief Akhilesh Yadav, South Indian superstar Rajinikanth was first seen touching the feet of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, followed by a hugging picture posted by the SP chief on Twitter.
“People hug when hearts meet,” the SP chief wrote, adding that he feels as happy meeting the superstar now as he did when he saw him on screen while studying engineering in Mysuru.
“We met in a personal capacity nine years ago, and have been friends since,” he added. He posted another picture of them sharing a laugh, sitting side by side at his residence.
Earlier, Rajinikanth met Yogi Adityanath at his residence in Lucknow on Saturday. The actor arrived in the city on Friday night for the screening of his film ‘Jailer’, which was attended by UP Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya.
UP Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya praised the actor for his acting skills and said, “I also got a chance to watch a film titled ‘Jailer’. I have seen many of Rajinikanth’s films, and he is such a talented actor that even though there is not much content in the film, still, with his performance, he elevates it.” ‘Jailer,’ which was released in theatres on August 10, is a box office hit. In India, the film’s eight-day total collection stood at ₹ 235.65 crore (as of August 17). The film was released in several languages, including Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi.
