Vettaiyan marks Rajinikanth and Amitabh’s first film together in 33 years after the 1991 Hindi film Hum. It’s also Amitabh’s debut in Tamil. The actor recently also played a full-fledged role in Prabhas’ Telugu film Kalki 2898 AD, after a cameo in Chiranjeevi’s 2019 film Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy.
Upcoming work
Karthik shot for a retro gangster drama with Suriya. After wrapping up shooting for the film last week, the actor posted a picture with Karthik on X, writing, “A wholesome, happy shoot got done across several locations… Lots of memories with the super talented cast & crew… I made a brother for life @karthiksubbaraj thank you & our team for making #Suriya44 a memorable experience. #ShootWrap.” Rajinikanth will also soon resume shooting for Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie, which will also star Nagarjuna, Soubin Shahir, Shruti Haasan, Sathyaraj and Nimma Upendra.
