In a shocking piece of news, South megastar Rajinikanth and his former son-in-law Dhanush recieved threats via emails. The messages, sent to the Tamil
Nadu Director General of Police’s official email ID, claimed that bombs had been planted at their Chennai homes. However, after thorough checks, police confirmed that the warnings were fake. According to officials, the anonymous email alleged that explosives were placed at the residences of Rajinikanth, Dhanush, and Tamil Nadu Congress Committee chief K. Selvaperunthagai. The alert was quickly passed on to the Greater Chennai Police, who launched search operations at all three locations. Teams from Teynampet police station and the bomb squad inspected Rajinikanth’s Poes Garden home but found nothing suspicious. Security staff also confirmed that no unknown individuals had entered the property. Similar inspections at Dhanush and Selvaperunthagai’s houses yielded no traces of explosives, leading police to declare all the threats baseless. This isn’t an isolated case. Tamil Nadu has seen a series of hoax bomb alerts this month. Earlier, emails falsely claimed that bombs were planted at actor Trisha’s house and other VIP residences. On October 9, police arrested a 37-year-old man, Shabik, for spreading a fake bomb scare at actor Vijay’s Neelankarai home. Days later, music legend Ilaiyaraaja’s T Nagar studio was also targeted by a hoax email. Authorities are now tracing the sender behind these recurring false alarms, which have repeatedly disrupted peace and raised security concerns in Chennai.
