Krishnagiri (TN), May 17: As many as 50 fans of Tamil superstar Rajnikanth on Tuesday, May 17 ate rice spread out on a bare floor at a temple in the industrial town of Hosur, praying for the actor's speedy recovery.

The ''Mann Soru'' ritual was held in the Kalikamba temple in Chandra Chudeswara hill temple premises.
