Rajini’s next with ‘Madras’ director?

Director Ranjith has been roped in to direct Rajinikanth in his yet-untitled next Tamil project, according to industry sources. “Ranjith's project with Rajinikanth is finalised. The film will be produced by Kalaipuli S. Thanu. The rest of the cast will be finalised soon,” a source said.

However, Rajini’s PR machinery chose to play it safe when quizzed about this collaboration. They said Rajini is in talks with many makers but nothing concrete has emerged yet.

Two-film-old Ranjith's last outing was Karthi-starrer acclaimed thriller ‘Madras’. Apparently, Rajini was supposed to team up with filmmaker Shankar for ‘Enthiran 2’. But the source added that the project is pushed to next year.
