'Vettaiyan', which marks Rajinikanth's 170th film, is scheduled for a worldwide release in October this year. Earlier, the production company unveiled the title teaser on Rajinikanth's 73rd birthday. The film features an ensemble cast including Amitabh Bachchan, Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, Ritika Singh, Manju Warrier, and Dushara Vijayan. Anirudh Ravichander serves as the music composer. Rajinikanth was spotted filming in various locations such as Trivandrum, Tirunelveli, and Tuticorin.
Rajinikanth was last seen in his daughter Aishwarya's film 'Lal Salaam'. The Tamil-language sports drama tackles themes of caste oppression and religious discrimination and received mixed reviews. 'Lal Salaam' stars Vishnu Vishal and Vikranth in lead roles, with Rajinikanth appearing in an extended cameo as Moideen Bhai.
Amitabh, on the other hand, was recently seen in 'Kalki 2898 AD', a mythology-inspired sci-fi extravaganza set in the future, also starring Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, Prabhas, and Disha Patani.
