Darbar: Here’s the first look poster of superstar Rajinikanth’s next

As informed last evening, the first look poster of Rajinikanth’s new film (Thalaivar 167) has just been released online. AR Murugadoss is directing the movie, which has been titled as ‘Darbar’. The movie has the role of a Mumbai based police officer. Nayanthara has been signed as the female lead. Nivetha Thomas is also said to be playing a crucial role in the movie.

AR Murugadoss is fresh from the success of ‘Sarkar’, which was a mass entertainer set in a political backdrop. ‘Darbar’ is most likely to be an out and out mass entertainer just like how the superstar’s fans expect. It has been a long while since he played a cop, so fans are highly excited about it.

Santosh Sivan will be wielding the camera and Anirudh Ravichander will be handling the music department. Veteran Sreekar Prasad is the editor. Lyca Productions, who last collaborated with Rajinikanth, in 2.0, is producing this movie. Shoots will be commencing formally from tomorrow (April 10). The makers have also announced that the movie will be hitting screens for Pongal, next year.
