While not much is known about this project yet, it is being speculated that the film will be set in a rural background.
It was recently announced that Nayanthara, Keerthy Suresh, Meena, Khushbu, Prakash Raj, Satish, and Soori are part of the ensemble cast of Annaatthe, that is currently being shot at the Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad.
This will be the third time that Nayanthara and Rajinikanth are acting together in a film. First, they teamed up in Chandramukhi, which released in 2005, and then in Darbar, which hit theatres last year. Nayanthara has also made cameo appearances in Rajini’s Sivaji (2007) and Kuselan (2008) earlier.
