Rana Daggubati on Vettaiyan

In a recent interview, Rana Daggubati talked about his upcoming film Vettaiyan and said, "The story is very unlike a usual Rajinikanth garu film but it is amazing that he is doing a film like that. It has got a large cast like Rajinikanth, Amitabh Bachchan, Fahadh Faasil. It is a drama that is interesting. A film between judiciary, police and entrepreneurial system. It is quiet well-researched story and it is not a regular Rajinikanth film. I am very happy he chose a film like that and I could be part of it.”

Vettaiyan is directed by filmmaker TJ Gnanavel of Jai Bhim fame, in his first ever collaboration with Rajinikanth. The film is backed by Lyca Productions and has music by Anirudh Ravichander.
