by

As a die-hard fan of the legendary Rajinikanth, I am absolutely thrilled about his upcoming film, Vettaiyan! The man never ceases to amaze us with his charm, charisma, and unparalleled acting skills. His recent revelation at an event about his daughter Soundarya recommending the story to him just adds another layer of admiration for this incredible family.

As a die-hard fan, I can barely contain my excitement as Rajinikanth prepares for the long-awaited premiere of Vettaiyan on October 10th! At a recent gathering, the superstar shared an interesting tidbit – his daughter Soundarya was the one who urged him to give the story a listen because she found it captivating. Furthermore, in discussing his director TJ Gnanavel, he mentioned that when he asked for more commercial aspects to be incorporated into Vettaiyan, the director responded enthusiastically! I can hardly wait to see this masterpiece unfold on the big screen!

During the audio premiere of an upcoming movie, the actor from Darbar reminisced that he appreciated the director’s storyline but desired more commercially appealing aspects in the script. Rajinikanth requested TJ Gnanavel to amend the plot with extra commercial elements, and he may consider taking part in the project. In response, the Jai Bhim director needed 10 days but reached out to Thalaivar only two days after their last discussion.

In relation to the following event, Rajinikanth mentioned, “TJ Gnanavel told me, ‘Sir, I’ll make this appealing to a wide audience… however, don’t anticipate it to be like the movies directors such as Nelson Dilipkumar and Lokesh Kanagaraj create.’ The superstar then said, ‘I will deliver it just like they do, keeping fans entertained—but in my unique manner.’ To this, Rajinikanth consented, expressing his desire for a similar outcome, as he would have approached Nelson Dilipkumar or Lokesh Kanagaraj had he wanted something different.

Furthermore, Rajinikanth shared that the filmmaker came back to him within 10 days with a revised storyline, which left him both astounded and pleased.

For those not familiar, Vettaiyan is an action-packed drama featuring Rajinikanth in the role of a reputable IPS officer, famously known as an encounter specialist. The filmmakers have recently shared an engaging trailer that sparked a lot of buzz on social media. Here’s the trailer for your viewing pleasure!

Beyond him, TJ Gnanavel’s directorial venture stars Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Manju Warrier, Rithika Singh, Dushara Vijayan, Abhirami, Kishore, among others in secondary roles. It is noteworthy that the music for this film has been created by Anirudh Ravichander, marking their 4th collaboration, following Petta, Darbar, and Jailer, all of which feature Rajinikanth.
