Rajinikanth,
one
of
the
biggest
names
in
Tamil
cinema,
is
currently
working
on
Darbar,
slated
to
arrive
in
theatres
this
Pongal.
The
film,
helmed
by
ace
director
AR
Murugadoss,
has
created
a
great
deal
of
buzz
amongst
movie
buffs
and
this
is
a
positive
development.
Now,
here
is
some
big
news
for
the
'Rajini
Army'.
According
to
reports,
Darbar's
overseas
rights
have
been
sold
for
Rs
35
crore,
which
bears
testimony
to
Superstar's
star
power.
Darbar
has
convincingly
beaten
Bigil
as
the
Vijay
starrer's
overseas
rights
fetched
merely
Rs
30
crore.
The
Murugadoss
movie
has
also
outperformed
Petta
(Rs
34.5
crore)
and
Kabali
(Rs
34
crore),
which
proves
that
brand
Thalaivar
is
becoming
stronger
with
every
movie.
Darbar,
touted
to
be
a
masala
entertainer,
features
Rajinikanth
in
the
role
of
a
cop
and
this
is
one
of
its
biggest
talking
points.
The
film
has
Nayanthara
as
the
leading
lady
and
marks
her
second
collaboration
with
her
Chandramukhi
co-star.
Some
time
ago,
while
speaking
at
the
Kaappaan
audio
launch,
Rajini
had
said
Darbar
will
be
a
'super
hit'.
"Lyca
Productions
is
bankrolling
three
biggies.
For
sure,
Indian
2
will
be
a
big
hit.
Many
tried
to
recreate
the
magic
of
Ponniyin
Selvan.
Finally,
the
dream
project
is
materialising.
AR
Murugadoss's
Darbar
is
also
a
confirm
super
hit,"
(sic)
Rajinikanth
had
said.
As
far
as
Bigil
is
concerned,
it's
a
sports-drama
that
features
Vijay
in
the
role
of
a
soccer
coach
and
deals
with
women
empowerment.
Like
Darbar,
the
Atlee-directed
movie
too
features
Nayanthara
as
the
leading
lady.
The
buzz
is
that
it
has
plenty
of
mass
sequences
and
punch
dialogues.
Coming
back
to
Rajinikanth,
once
Darbar
hits
screens,
he
is
likely
to
join
hands
with
top
filmmaker
'Siruthai'
Siva
for
a
mass
entertainer
set
against
a
rural
backdrop.
The
film
is
likely
to
be
announced
pretty
soon.
