The biggest question in Kollywood has finally been answered. Superstar Rajinikanth has confirmed that his film with Kamal Haasan, directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, will be his next project after Dharman.
The Speculation Ends
The Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan film, to be directed by Nelson, was announced earlier. After the record-breaking success of Jailer 2, expectations for the project have gone through the roof.
But there had been doubts about whether the film would go on the floors soon, or whether it would take a long time. Now, Rajinikanth himself has put those questions to rest.
What Rajinikanth Said
A few top distributors from Tamil Nadu recently met Rajinikanth to discuss the phenomenal success of Jailer 2. During the meeting, the Superstar confirmed that his film with Kamal Haasan and Nelson will be his next, right after Dharman.
Big Confidence in Dharman
Rajinikanth also spoke about Dharman, his upcoming film with director Ashwath Marimuthu. He said he has great confidence in the film and huge expectations from it, and that he believes the final output will come out very well.
Dharman, which also features Ram Pothineni and Sreeleela, is planned for an April 2027 release. The film is produced by Kamal Haasan’s Raaj Kamal Films International.
Kamal Haasan’s Sandiyar First
At the same time, Kamal Haasan is busy with his own film, Sandiyar, directed by S.U. Arun Kumar. The film was announced on his birthday and has already landed in a political row over its title.
With both stars busy with their current projects, the Nelson film is expected to go on the floors next summer.
What’s Next for Rajinikanth
- Dharman: April 2027 release (planned)
- Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan film with Nelson: Expected to start next summer
The Biggest Kollywood Film Ever
Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan are two of the greatest icons in Indian cinema, and seeing them together on screen again is a dream for fans of both. With Nelson, who directed both Jailer films, at the helm, the project is shaping up to be the biggest Kollywood film ever.
After Jailer 2 became Kollywood’s first ₹800 Cr film, the bar for this combination is now higher than ever.
