Although the specifics of this Mani Ratnam and Rajinikanth project are yet unknown, fans are overjoyed by the news. Fans expressed their enthusiasm in the comments section. One admirer responded to the news by saying, “Oh man! That combo is fantastic. Another admirer said, “I like Rajini’s current arc. They say that as you become older, you want for youth more, yet life is a cycle. You show that you can achieve anything, no matter your age, because of your persistence and adrenaline rush. It’s just the way of nature. If they work together, it would be fantastic! “I still remember how overjoyed I was when THUG LIFE was announced,” said a third enthusiast. Feel about 85% of that bliss right now. The reunion of two of my favorite musicians. Life is fantastic.
In the 1991 film Thalapathi, Mammootty played the major role as well. Then, a modern-day adaptation of the Mahabharata’s story of Karna and Duryodhana’s friendship was presented in the film. While Mammootty depicted Duryodhana as Devaraj, Rajinikanth represented Karna in the guise of Surya the warrior.
Regarding his career, Ratnam is now engaged on Thug Life, his first collaboration with Kamal Haasan in over thirty years. In contrast, Rajinikanth’s next film, Vettaiyan, will feature him with Amitabh Bachchan and Fahadh Faasil. Alongside Shruti Haasan and Nagarjuna, the actor is also slated to star in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie.
