FIRST TIME EVER: POPULAR ACTOR JOINS THE CAST OF SUPERSTAR RAJINIKANTH'S THALAIVAR 168

Thalaivar 168 will be produced by Sun Pictures, who had earlier bankrolled two of Rajinikanth’s successful features such as Endhiran and the Karthik Subbaraj-directorial Petta, which released this year along with Viswasam.

The makers have officially announced that popular comedian Soori will be acting in Thalaivar 168. The actor will be sharing screen space along with Superstar for the first time. Thalaivar 168 music will be composed by D. Imman.

On the work front, Rajinikanth is currently busy with the proceedings of Darbar, which is directed by AR Murugadoss and produced by Subaskaran under the banner Lyca Productions.
