Superstar Rajinikanth has recently confirmed his participation in a new project alongside Bollywood producer Sajid Nadiadwala. The announcement came via Nadiadwala's official social media platforms. This collaboration might follow Rajinikanth's completion of Vettaiyan and Thalaivar 171.

Is Rajinikanth making a cameo in Sourav Ganguly’s biopic?

Adding to the excitement, reports reveal that Rajinikanth's younger daughter, Soundarya Rajinikanth, will direct a biopic on veteran Indian cricketer Sourav Ganguly. The project falls under the production house of Sajid Nadiadwala. Sources of IndiaGlitz speculate that Rajinikanth might make a cameo appearance in the film, potentially titled Thalaivar 172. However, official confirmation is pending.

Rajinikanth also recently made a cameo in his elder daughter Aishwarya's directorial venture Lal Salaam which was a cricket-based sports drama featuring Vishnu Vishal and Vikranth. The movie, however, did not do well at the box office.
