SS Rajamouli and his son SS Karthikeya recently encountered an earthquake in Japan. The earthquake had a preliminary magnitude of 5.3. Karthikeya shared a photo of his smartwatch displaying the earthquake alert on X (formerly known as Twitter) and discussed the experience. He mentioned that the RRR team was on the 28th floor when the earthquake occurred. Karthikeya described how the ground began to move and it took them a moment to realize it was an earthquake. Although he was initially panicking, he noticed that the Japanese people around him remained calm, as if it were just a light rain. The post generated concern among fans, who prayed for their safety and return to India. One fan advised them to be cautious due to the possibility of aftershocks. Another fan expressed relief that they were safe and urged them to continue to be careful throughout their stay.
