KH x RK Reunion: Kamal Haasan-Rajinikanth join hands for Nelson’s film; shoot begins soon
The Hindu
The film has music by Anirudh Ravichander and is produced under the Red Giant Movies banner
In an update that has taken the internet by storm, veteran actors Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan will collaborate on an upcoming film that’s currently untitled, directed by Jailer-maker Nelson. The film is produced under the Red Giant Movies banner.
The highly-anticiapted project was announced today (February 21, 2026) with a quirky promotional video, a trademark of all Nelson movies. The glimpse begins with Nelson being confused about whom to approach first: Rajinikanth or Kamal Haasan?
Anirudh Ravichander then greets him and asks the director to touch one of his two fingers. The music composer says he is undecided about picking one between Shanmukha Priya and Kokila Priya. “Are they heroines?” asks a clueless Nelson. Anirudh then walks off saying he will go with Kharaharapriya raga.
Following that, hilarious scenes unfold as Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth choose the opposite of what the other has preferred as they get dressed up with suit, boots, watch and shades. The legendary actors then walk towards a car in a garage, where stylish models are washing exotic and vintage cars. Anirudh’s retro-themed background score elevates the visuals.
The promo ends with Kamal asking Nelson a dicey question: Who is the hero of the movie?
