Lokesh Kanagaraj’s next with Rajinikanth to be announced shortly!

Though just two films old, Lokesh Kanagaraj is already one of the most wanted filmmakers in Kollywood. After making an impressive debut with ‘Maanagaram’, he delivered a huge blockbuster last year with ‘Kaithi’. He is now working on ‘Master’, the upcoming biggie starring Vijay and Vijay Sethupathi in the leads. A section of media has now reported that the talented young filmmaker’s next is with none other than Rajinikanth.

Apparently, Lokesh had pitched a storyline to the superstar which impressed him big time. It is said that the film will be officially announced on April 14, on the special occasion of Tamil New Year. There is also a big buzz that Kamal Haasan will be producing the film.

Recently, at an awards function, Lokesh received an award from Kamal Haasan, whom he considers his idol. While speaking at the event, the veteran was all praise of Lokesh. He said that he feels proud about Lokesh for having made a film like ‘Kaithi’. He also hinted that there is something else cooking. A Rajini-Lokesh film backed by Kamal Haasan is nothing short of a dream project. Let’s hope it materializes soon.
