Rajinikanth ventured out of his residence at 9 pm on some work and suddenly heavy rain hit the area. Hence, he stopped nearby his house, as it was continuously raining. However, later, he had decided to go home. So, he crossed the road, which was flooded with rainwater. While he was crossing the road, he fell into a drainage pit and washed away, as the road was waterlogged.
