While most stars are busy chasing the spotlight, South superstar Rajinikanth is doing the exact opposite, stepping away from the limelight for a soul-soothing spiritual journey. The 74-year-old legend recently visited the Badrinath shrine in Chamoli, Uttarakhand, where he offered prayers to Lord Badrinath, seeking blessings for the well-being of India. This isn’t just a one-off visit. Rajinikanth is known to visit the temple every year, and this time too, he was seen humbly bowing his head and taking blessings proving once again that his greatness lies in his simplicity.

Currently on a break from films, Rajinikanth has swapped film sets for the Himalayas. And fans can’t stop talking about it! A few days ago, photos of the superstar went viral on social media where he was seen eating a simple meal off a leaf plate by the roadside, just like a common man. No starry tantrums, no entourage, just pure humility. As part of his spiritual trail, the actor has visited the Swami Dayanand Ashram in Rishikesh, meditated along the Ganga Ghats.

Let us tell you that social media is flooded with fans praising his grounded lifestyle. One user even wrote, “The more you see him, the more you respect him.” Don’t worry, Rajinikanth fans, he may be taking a spiritual detour now, but he’ll be back on the big screen soon. After the success of Jailer in 2023, Thalaiva is all set to return with Jailer 2, directed once again by Nelson Dilipkumar.

The 67-year-old singer will appear on a new episode of On Purpose with Jay Shetty on Monday (29.09.25), where she speaks candidly with podcast host Jay Shetty about the role spirituality has played in her life.

The discussion ranges from forgiveness and success to the influence of Kabbalah, which Madonna first encountered in 1996 shortly before the birth of her daughter Lourdes Leon.

An extract from the chat obtained by People reveals Madonna tells Jay: “You need to be spiritual to be successful. Success is having a spiritual life, period. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t have one.”

The seven-time Grammy award winner, known for her outspoken advocacy on human rights, added: “What have I done for others? That’s really the only way you can be successful in life. It’s like the greatest amount of light is where there’s darkness and you can reveal the most amount of light. When you’re in a dark room, you turn on the light. When you’re in a room that’s already light, what do you, there’s no, um, effort made. So should we look for darkness?”

She continued: “My soul’s purpose is to reveal light in the world through whatever I do. I want it all, but I want it for the sake of sharing, not to keep it for myself.”

The podcast also features Eitan Yardeni, Madonna’s longtime Kabbalah teacher.

The pair recently launched a new course titled The Mystical Studies of the Zohar.

Speaking to Jay, Madonna admitted she had once been vulnerable to outside judgment.

She added: “I was once a slave or victim of other people’s opinions of me.

“I don’t fit in, and not fitting in is what saves you.”

Reflecting on her career highs and lows, she insisted spirituality has provided the foundation for her resilience.

Madonna said: “Spiritual wisdom is not helpful when everything’s going your way. It’s helpful when you’re challenged and when you’re happy.

“It’s helpful to remember that at any given time, in any moment, it could be gone. So don’t take it for granted. Have humility.

“Radical acceptance is just accepting that what is happening to you is meant to happen to you – and that you’re going to be okay.”
