Kamal Haasan confirms upcoming new film with Rajnikanth: "This was long coming"

Superstars Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth, who have collaborated in several films together such as Pathinaru Vayathinilele, Avargal and more, are set to star together on the silver screen again.

During his appearance at the SIIMA Awards 2025 held in Dubai, Kamal Haasan spoke about possible collaboration with Rajnikanth.

When asked about whether the iconic duo will be sharing the screen anytime soon, the Thug Life actor said, "We don't know if it's a Tharamana Sambavam (wonderful occurence) but it's good if the audience likes it. If they're happy, we'll like it. Otherwise, we'll continue trying. This was long coming. We were separate because they gave one biscuit to both of us. But the half biscuit makes us both happy, so we'll come together."

“It is you all who thought/created the competition. We don't have any competition between us. It's important that we got the chance to do this. He is like that, so am I. It might be a surprise, business-wise, but we feel at least now it's happening. We always wanted to produce each other's films," he stated.
