Who is ‘Rana’?

There are doubts in Kollywood
that ‘Rana’, the trilingual
announced by Superstar
Rajinikanth on Friday, is nothing
but the revival of ‘Sultan the
Warrior’, the top actor’s first
animation film.
“Since the film involves huge
budget and requires more live
scenes, it has now been given
the avatar of a feature film in
association with Eros
International,” a section of
Kollywood pundits felt.
However, those close to Ocher
Studios, the production house
run by Soundarya Rajinikanth
which would produce ‘Rana’
along with Eros International,
were quick to deny this claim.
“This is a fresh script to be
directed by K S Ravikumar. To be
produced on a huge budget, the
movie will be simultaneously
made in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi.
A popular heroine will be paired
opposite the Superstar,” they say.
