Brace yourselves, Rajinikanth fans! The much-awaited “Vettaiyan” is about to hit theatres on October 10th, and it’s all set to be another mass entertainer that will have everyone buzzing. The moment the trailer dropped; the internet went wild. It’s Rajinikanth like we’ve never seen him before—larger than life, bold, and badass! So, what exactly should we expect from “Vettaiyan“? Let’s dive into why this movie has got us so hyped!
Rajinikanth is set to portray a Muslim police officer in this film, marking an exciting role for the superstar. In June 2023, Amitabh Bachchan officially joined the cast, making his debut in Tamil cinema and reuniting with Rajinikanth after their iconic pairing in Hum (1991). Initially, Bachchan was supposed to debut in Tamil with Uyarndha Manidhan, but due to disagreements with the producer, the project was shelved.
What’s also grabbing eyeballs is how Rajinikanth looks in this film. His larger-than-life persona is paired with some fresh costume design that makes him look like a warrior king straight out of myth. And trust me, the way he delivers those punchlines in the trailer? Goosebumps. Every. Single. Time. The film was produced on a budget of ₹160 crore (approximately US$19 million)
Meanwhile, Fahadh Faasil steps into a humorous role, marking his fifth Tamil film. According to wikipidea, the leading ladies of the movie include Manju Warrier, Ritika Singh, and Dushara Vijayan, whose involvement was confirmed on October 2, 2023. A day later, Rana Daggubati was announced for a significant role by the production team. The participation of Rakshan and G. M. Sundar was also confirmed during the muhurat puja, with Rohini, Rao Ramesh, and Ramesh Thilak joining the ensemble cast later on.
Anirudh Ravichander is composing the music, marking his first collaboration with director Gnanavel. On October 4, 2023, the core technical team was confirmed, featuring cinematographer S. R. Kathir, editor Philomin Raj, and the stunt choreography duo Anbariv, all of whom previously worked with Gnanavel on Jai Bhim. Additionally, art director K. Kathir, make-up artist Pattanam Rasheed, and costume designer Anu Vardhan were brought on board.
October 10th is just around the corner, so get ready to witness the Rajinikanth magic unfold once again on the big screen along with our Bollywood evergreen superstar, Amitabh Bacchan. Whether you’re going for the action, the drama, or simply to watch Thalaivar do his thing, “Vettaiyan” is set to be an unforgettable cinematic experience. So grab your tickets, gear up for the madness, and let’s get ready for what’s sure to be one of the biggest hits of 2024!
