Superstar Rajinikanth has announced a new film with director Sundar C, amidst retirement rumors and questions about the director's image. Rajinikanth's films typically require pan-India and global appeal, given his massive fan base across languages and regions
Rajinikanth's previous collaborations, such as Annaatthe with Director Siva and Lal Salaam with Aishwarya Rajinikanth, had limited success due to the directors' market reach. Sundar C's recent films have largely appealed only to the Tamil Nadu audience, raising concerns about the film's universal appeal.
Despite the risks, Kamal Haasan, the producer, is convinced of the script, bringing hope that the film might turn out to be a universal entertainer. The duo's previous blockbuster, Arunachalam, is a testament to their successful collaboration.
Rajinikanth's decision to team up with Sundar C is a bold risk, and the outcome remains uncertain. The film's success will depend on Sundar C's ability to create a universally appealing story. With Kamal Haasan's involvement and Sundar C's direction, the film has the potential to become a major hit, but only time will tell if the gamble pays off.
