The Megastar’s last film Annaatthe (2021) wasn’t a blockbuster hit and had received mixed reviews. Therefore his fans, are wondering whether Rajinikanth made the right decision to work with filmmaker Nelson Dilipkumar.
It is worth pointing out that director Nelson’s last film, Doctor, was a success. Nelson’s recent film Beast, starring Vijay, has also done phenomenally well at the box office across the country.
It is also being reported that Doctor actress, Priyanka Mohan has been roped in to play the role of Rajinikanth’s daughter in Thalaivar 169. She was last seen in Etharkkum Thunindhavan.
The big-budget Rajinikanth starrer is expected to go on floors very soon. Nelson Dilipkumar will soon start with the pre-production work of the movie. Nelson Dilipkumar will be under added pressure to repeat Beast’s success with Thalaivar 169.
