What Rajinikanth's Routine Showed Us
The video begins with Rajinikanth doing incline dumbbell presses on a bench, a move that targets the upper chest and builds arm strength. Later, he transitions into bench squats, a controlled form of squatting that improves leg strength and mobility while reducing pressure on the knees. Finally, he confidently flexes his biceps, showing off not just muscle but the spirit of discipline.
His form and focus highlight how seniors, when guided correctly, can engage in strength training safely and reap long-term benefits.
Why Incline Dumbbell Press Matters
The incline dumbbell press is more than just a chest workout. Experts point out that it:
For older adults, it can be a game-changer in maintaining upper-body strength, which is crucial for independence and balance.
Rajinikanth's workout serves as a reminder that strength training isn't reserved for the young. As per health experts, moderate weight training in older adults helps combat muscle loss, improves bone density, enhances cardiovascular health, and boosts mental well-being. It's about adding life to years, not just years to life.
Beyond the gym, Rajinikanth continues to shine in cinema, with his latest release Coolie making headlines. But it's his commitment to personal health that resonates the most. His journey shows that fitness is not about chasing youth. It's about embracing vitality at every stage of life.

Coolie Box Office Collection: Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna's film nears Rs 300 crore in 3 days, overseas century seals top-3 spot
Superstar Rajinikanth's Coolie has set theatres buzzing in 2025. While Hindi audiences have given it only a fair response, the film is ruling in Tamil and other languages. Overseas, it's a full-blown storm. According to Sacnilk, the film earned Rs 38.50 crore in India on its third day, which was a drop of Rs 16.25 crore compared to the day before. Still, the numbers remain solid, taking its domestic three-day total to Rs 158.25 crore. What about the worldwide box office? The real surprise lies overseas. Within two days, Coolie had already collected Rs 103.25 crore internationally. Fans abroad are making Rajini's 50th year in cinema unforgettable. Add that to its Indian numbers, and the worldwide total after three days has touched Rs 283.50 crore. With a budget in the range of Rs 350–400 crore, the film is already inching close to its cost within the opening weekend itself. Is Coolie one of Rajini's biggest hits? Yes. In just three days, Coolie has become the third biggest film of Rajinikanth's career. The only two films ahead are Jailer with Rs 605 crore and 2.0 with Rs 675 crore. Even without day 3's overseas numbers, Coolie is well on track to cross the Rs 300 crore mark, which would cement its place among his all-time blockbusters. Why does the overseas response matter so much? Rajinikanth's magic has always had a global pull. In recent years, international markets have played a key role in pushing his films into record-breaking zones. With Coolie, the trend continues, as audiences outside India have already delivered a century in just two days. By conservative estimates, even if the film adds Rs 12–20 crore from overseas on day 3, the worldwide tally could rise to Rs 295–300 crore. The bigger picture Coolie isn't just another release—it's Rajinikanth's celebration of 50 years in cinema. The film is already his third biggest grosser and is well-positioned to challenge Jailer and 2.0 in the weeks to come. Whether it becomes 2025's top earner or not, one thing is certain—Rajini's storm has once again shaken Indian cinema.
