Rajinikanth's

one
of
the

it
to
the
headlines
for
its
star-studded
cast
including
Lady
Superstar
Nayanthara
and
National
Award-winning
actress
Keerthy
Suresh.
With

doing
the
rounds
about
the

actresses,
a

be
essaying
the
role
of
Keerthy
Suresh's
mother
in
Annaatthe.
Surprised?
If
yes,

are
in
the
same
league!
As
per
recent
grapevine,
Nayanthara
has
taken
up
the
role
citing
her
importance
and

factor

the
movie.
However,
there
is
no
official
confirmation
regarding
the
same

the
makers
or

Well,

not
the
first
time
Annaatthe
has
became
victim
of
rumours
and
speculations.
Earlier,
it
was

Later
on,
an

regarding
the
project
and
the
