Filmmaker Soundarya Rajinikanth, daughter of superstar Rajinikanth, delivered a baby boy at a private hospital in Chennai.
"The baby was born late on Wednesday night at Apollo hospital. Both - the baby and the mother - are absolutely fine," a source close to Rajinikanth told IANS.
Soundarya married Ashwin Ramkumar, an industrialist, in 2010. This is the couple's first child.
Soundarya is known for directing India's first motion capture animated film
Kochadaiyaan, starring her father.
In 2013, at the audio launch of
Kochadaiyaan, Rajini publicly wished for his daughter Soundarya to settle down with a family and chase her filmmaking dream subsequently.
Rajinikanth already has two grandsons, Yatra and Linga, who are his elder daughter Aishwaryaa's sons. She is married to popular actor Dhanush.
