Soundarya all set to direct super daddy-Rajinikanth



After taking the nation by a storm in ‘Shivaji-The Boss’, superstar Rajinikanth is all set to woo millions across the globe once again as he begins shooting for ‘Sultan’, one of the most expensive animated flicks to be made in the history of Indian cinema.

The film that is a mythology based 3D animation flick will see daughter Soundarya directing papa, Rajinikanth. Speaking to a news daily about the flick, Soundarya said, "First of all, a film like Sultan has never been done before because it's realistic 3D and what India has seen as of now is more 2D. It's all mythology-based and this is a fictitious film."

So does directing papa make Soundarya nervous?

Well, for now the somber director is keeping her fingers crossed that all goes well. As for Rajinikanth, the director said, "The film stars superstar Rajinikanth, so yeah, I think that's the edge. My father's looking forward to it too. It's the first time he's going to be directed by his daughter so he's very excited about it as well".

The film that is a co-production between Soundarya’s Ocher studios and Adlabs will also see production inputs coming in from Hollywood’s Warner Bros that has signed a five action film deal with Ocher studios.
