Amitabh Bachchan on the work front
Amitabh Bachchan was last seen in the dystopian action film Ganapath. He will be next seen in the multilingual sci-fic action Kalki 2898 AD with Prabhas, Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani. Apart from that, he is also making his Tamil debut with Vettaiyan alongside Rajinikanth.
Rajinikanth on the work front
After finishing Vettaiyan, Superstar Rajinikanth will begin work on his 171st film, Coolie, with director Lokesh Kanagaraj. The directors recently published the film’s title teaser, which features the celebrity monologuing his famous line from the 1980s film Ranga. Furthermore, the background score used in the teaser was inspired by the actor’s song Vaa Pakkam Vaa. However, the original song’s composer, Ilaiyaraaja, has just issued a legal notice to the film’s producers, citing copyright difficulties.
Aside from these films, it is also rumored that Rajinikanth may collaborate with director Nelson on the sequel to their smash film Jailer, which was released in 2023.
