Hyderabad: Veteran actor Kamal Haasan and South superstar Rajinikanth had the chance to meet and share a lighthearted moment while filming their respective movies on November 23. Interestingly, after a span of 21 years, both stars happened to be shooting at the same place.

Currently, Kamal Haasan is working on S Shankar's Indian 2, which is a sequel to the 1996 blockbuster film.

Besides Indian 2, Kamal Haasan is also engaged in two other projects. One is a film helmed by H Vinoth, while the other is a collaboration with Mani Ratnam, marking their reunion since the remarkable film Nayakan (1987). The Kamal Haasan-Mani Ratnam collaboration is titled Thug Life. A R Rahman will be composing the music for the film, and the stunt choreography will be handled by Anbariv. The Indian 2 makers recently shared a clip, which provides a sneak peek introducing all the central characters of the film, including Kamal Haasan's iconic character Senapathy.

Following the success of Nelson Dilipkumar's Jailer, Rajinikanth is currently occupied with the shooting of Thalaivar 170.
