Rajinikanth’s daughter, Aishwarya, took to Instagram after accepting the award on behalf of her father at an event celebrating Income Tax Day on Sunday, presided by Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan.
“Proud daughter of a high and prompt taxpayer,” Aishwarya wrote on Instagram.

According to a CNBC report, the Income Tax Department observed its 162nd occasion of the National Income Tax Day on July 24, 2022. This date was chosen because income tax was first levied as a duty in India in 1860 on this very day.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Rajinikanth has teamed up with filmmaker Nelson Dilipkumar for a new film titled ‘Jailer’. The project, which will also star Kannada actor Shivrajkumar in a key role, will go on the floors soon.
