Vettaiyaan preview: Rajinikanth, Big B lead Gnanavel’s film on encounter killings
Rajinikanth is all set to play a supercop in his upcoming film Vettaiyaan, which will be directed by TJ Gnanavel. The preview of the film was launched at a star-studded event in Chennai today. Thalaivar will play an encounter specialist while Amitabh Bachchan will play his senior in the film.
The preview of Rajinikanth starrer Vettaiyan was released at a star-studded audio launch in Chennai. This is writer and director TJ Gnanavel’s third film after Jai Bhim (2021) and Kootathil Oruthan.
In the film, Rajinikanth plays an encounter specialist who is used to dealing with dangerous enemies, while Amitabh Bachchan plays his senior, Satyadev, who does not agree with his methods of dealing with criminals.
Along with Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan, the film also stars Manju Warrier, Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati and many others in lead roles. It is scheduled to release on October 10, 2024.
Watch the preview of Vettaiyan here:
One thing that fans might not like is Amitabh Bachchan’s voiceover in the preview. Actor Prakash Raj, who played a key role in Gnanavel’s Jai Bhim, has dubbed for Big B in Tamil.
Like Jai Bhim, Vettaiyan too deals with encounter killings and human rights violations.
Vettaiyaan’s audio launch was attended by Rajinikanth, Anirudh Ravichander, Rana Daggubati, Dushara and Ritika Singh among others. Big B, who plays a key role in the film, did not attend the event.
Meanwhile, the name of Rajinikanth’s character is yet to be revealed. The title of the film is in Tamil, which means hunter. Vettaiyaan will release in theatres on October 10.
