Fans
can
now
rejoice
as
the
highly-anticipated
Rajinikanth-starrer
Annaatthe
gets
a
confirmed
release.
The
makers
of
the
movie,
Sun
pictures,
that
the
movie
will
hit
the
theatres
on
2021
Pongal.
The
movie
was
supposed
to
hit
the
theatres
in
October
2020,
but
was
later
postponed
due
to
the
ongoing
pandemic.
An
18-second
video
has
been
dropped
unveiling
the
release
with
the
title
of
the
action-drama.
Well,
the
announcement
has
truly
impressed
the
fans,
with
a
few
requesting
more
updates
about
the
movie.
Well,
it
is
sure
that
Annaatthe
would
be
a
treat
for
Thalaiva
fans
as
they
are
eagerly
waiting
for
the
release.
Annaatthe
will
mark
the
maiden
collaboration
of
Rajinikanth
with
director
Siva.
Touted
to
be
an
out
and
out
family
entertainer,
the
movie
will
have
the
Thalaiva
essaying
the
role
of
a
family
man,
unlike
his
recent
ventures,
which
featured
him
as
an
action
hero.
It
is
also
said
that
his
character
will
have
the
essence
of
some
popular
roles
he
had
essayed
in
the
80s
and
90s.
Interestingly,
the
Superstar
has
last
essayed
such
a
character
in
the
2005
movie
Chandramukhi.
The
movie
will
have
lady
superstar
Nayanthara
and
National
award
winner
Keerthy
Suresh
essaying
pivotal
roles.
Nayanthara
will
appear
as
Rajinikanth's
love
interest,
while
Keerthy
will
essay
the
role
of
his
younger
sister.
Annaatthe
will
also
have
Khusboo,
Meena,
Prakash
Raj,
Soori,
Sathish,
Vela
Ramamoorthy
and
George
Maryan
in
supporting
roles.
D
Imman
will
compose
the
music
for
the
film,
which
will
have
camera
cranked
by
Vetri.
Talking
about
Rajinikanth's
last
venture
Darbar
with
AR
Murugadoss,
the
film
didn't
quite
impress
the
audience
at
the
theatres.
