After the blockbuster success of the Ajith-starrer Viswasam, ‘‘Siruthai’ Siva will be helming the forthcoming film ‘Thalaivar 168’ that stars Superstar Rajinikanth in the central role. The film is produced by Kalanithi Maran under the banner Sun Pictures, the company’s third collaboration with Rajinikanth after Endhiran and Petta.
The makers commenced the film’s shoot today (18th December) morning. Just now, Thalaivar 168 music director D. Imman tweeted that he had met Rajinikanth in the sets of the project, during a song shoot and his words were really encouraging.
The composer was all praise for the actor and his presence. Apart from Rajinikanth, Thalaivar 168 will also feature performances from Meena, Khushbu, Keerthy Suresh, Soori, Sathish and others. The film is shot by ‘Siruthai’ Siva’s frequent collaborator Vetri.
On the work front, Rajinikanth will be next seen essaying a cop in director AR Murugadoss’ much-awaited Pongal release Darbar. The film’s trailer was released and the action flick is set to hit the screens on Pongal next year
