First look of Rajini’s Kochadaiyaan to be revealed on 14th April?

Sources close to the crew of superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming film kochadaiyaan have hinted at the possibility of the ‘first look’ of the film getting revealed as early as on this Sunday (14th April) on the eve of the commencement of the Tamil New Year.

Millions of fans of Rajini have displayed monumental patience in waiting for the release of their Thalaivar’s kochadaiyaan whose post-production work seems to be taking ages to complete. Except for a few still photographs, nothing about kochadaiyaan has so far been released to the media. The film was to release during last Deepavali but was postponed at least thrice and is now scheduled to hit the screens in July.

Starring Rajinikanth, Deepika Padukone, Sarath Kumar, Jackie Shroff, Shobana and Rukmani Vijayakumar in lead roles, kochadaiyaan is to be released all over the world in as many as 7 languages including English and Japanese. Soundarya Ashwin, Rajini’s younger daughter, makes her directorial debut with her father’s kochadaiyaan, which is also the country’s first-ever animation film to be shot entirely in 3-D mode.

A few days back, it was reported that a song from kochadaiyaan would be premiered at the prestigious annual film festival at Cannes in May and that Rajini himself would be there at the venue to supervise arrangements. However, it is now expected that the teaser of the film including posters and few more stills, might be out by this Sunday. The Cannes premiere is on and might include a trailer, it is further reported.

A.R. Rahman has scored the music of the film which has K.S. Ravikumar penning the story, screenplay and dialogues besides supervising Soundarya’s direction.

Soundarya feels Kochadaiyan is Rajini’s best as on date

The hype about superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming 3-D animation film Kochadaiyaan is being raised with nothing being released to the public view. Soundarya Ashwin, who is debuting as director with the film, is of the opinion that Kochadaiyaan might turn out to be Rajini’s best-ever in terms of performance.

Excitement, expectations and hype surrounding a Rajini film release are legendary. Even the posters of Rajini’s new film manage to arouse great amount of enthusiasm among his fans and movie-goers. Whatever suspense the script-writer might keep about the script, the press invariably gets a ‘sneak peak’ into the film’s story and manages to reveal as to what can be expected from the film.

Kochadaiyaan is expected for a variety of reasons and two of them can be cited as premier ones: for the first time in his career, Rajini has been directed by his daughter; secondly; this is Rajini’s first on-screen appearance in a full film after his life-threatening illness and subsequent recovery in 2011. Rajini reportedly plays dual roles in the film of a father (Kochadaiyan) and his son (Rana).

As Kochadaiyan happens to be a bharatanatyam dancer, Shobana has been paired up opposite the older Rajini. Rajini has also sung a song in the film which was recorded a few months back. “Rajini’s twin roles in the film have come out very well…Kochadaiyan would be remembered for a long time for many reasons and one of them, I feel, would be that it might well turn out to be Rajini’s best performance as on date!” says Soundarya.

It is said that in the climax, Rajini would reel off  his trade-mark ‘punch’ dialogues and would then follow it up with a very stylish walk. This was well appreciated by members of the crew who clapped their hands for several seconds, it is reported.

Now it is high time the film gets  released rather than crew speaking on the Air.
