Rajini undergo Kidney transplant?

Superstar Rajinikanth, who left for Singapore on May 27 along with his family for further treatment of renal failure, has been admitted to an intensive care unit of Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre, Singapore, one of the best hospitals in Asia.

Sources indicate that the superstar might undergo kidney transplantation soon, but no confirmation has come yet. The hospital is also refusing to provide any details pertaining to the superstar’s health to maintain privacy. It is noteworthy that the former Samajwadi General Secretary Amar Singh underwent kidney transplantation a few months ago at the same hospital.

Meanwhile, reports say that it was Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan who advised Rajinikanth to go to Mount Elizabeth in Singapore for further treatment. Bachchan, who is very close to the superstar, is deeply concerned about his recurrent ill-health in the recent past. Rajinikanth and Bachchan acted together in blockbusters Andha Kanoon and Hum. Since then, the two veterans have been thick friends.

Kavya Madhavan's Marriage annulled

Popular Mollywood actress Kavya Madhavan’s marriage with Dubai-based Nischal Chandra was officially annulled on Monday by the Ernakulam family court.

At the last hearing, family court judge Joseph Thekke Kuruvinal had sent the couple for last-term counseling, but Kavya and Nischal submitted there were irreconcilable differences and they could not live together.

The couple submitted before the court that there were no cases pending before any court and a No Objection Certificate will be submitted before the High Court where a petition filed by Kavya is pending.

Following this, the Judge dissolved their two-year-old marriage on Monday. Kavya Madhavan married Nischal Chandra, who is said to be an employee with the National Bank of Kuwait, in December 2008.
