Rajinikanth is terribly upset because of the news about Ranjith directing him was leaked out even before it was officially announced. Because of this, there was also a doubt that whether this project will materialize.
Though no official communication with regard to this has been made, the pre-production works of the film are going in rapid pace. It is understood that many actors will be sharing the screen with Rajini. They have also been signed and advance paid. They have also been advised to be ready because the shooting will commence any moment.
The first schedule shooting of the film will commence in Malaysia and the shooting will take place for a month’s time. Though it has been mentioned that Kalaipuli S Dhanu is producing the film, the original producer is Eros International.
