The project, which will see Rajinikanth play a caring brother, marks his maiden collaboration with director Siva, best known for helming Veeram (2014) and Viswasam (2019), both starring Ajith.
Tipped to be a rural drama and being bankrolled by Sun Pictures, the film also stars Nayanthara, Keerthy Suresh, Meena and Khushbhu in key roles. The film was officially launched last December in Chennai in a low-key affair.
The film is already confirmed as Diwali 2020 release. The makers are yet to reveal rest of the cast and crew.
Rajinikanth was last seen on screen in Darbar (2020), which has been directed by AR Murugadoss. The film featured Rajinikanth in the role of an angry cop who sets out to avenge his daughter. It marked the return of Rajinikanth in the role of a cop after 25 years.
