Mumbai (Anil Bedag): Two of Indian cinema’s greatest legends — Superstar Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan — are set to share the screen once again in what promises to be a monumental cinematic journey. Rajinikanth’s next magnum opus, ‘Thalaivar 173’, is being presented by Raaj Kamal Films International and directed by the acclaimed filmmaker Sundar C.
This film is not merely a cinematic project but a celebration of Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan’s five-decade-long friendship and brotherhood. With this collaboration, Raaj Kamal Films International also marks its glorious 44th year in the film industry.
Produced by Kamal Haasan and R. Mahendran, this mega venture brings together Rajinikanth’s charismatic screen presence and Sundar C’s dynamic direction. The film will be grandly released during Pongal 2027 under the banner of Red Giant Movies.
For cinephiles, this collaboration is an emotional and historic moment — a reunion of two towering icons who will once again script a golden chapter in Indian cinema.
