Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan to reunite after 46 years
Entertainment
Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan are finally teaming up again after 46 years, with director Nelson Dilipkumar at the helm.
The movie—tentatively called Nelson07—will bring back their legendary chemistry, this time with a dark comedy twist that fans of Jailer and Doctor will recognize.
'Nelson07' will start filming soon
This reunion is a big deal for Tamil cinema, especially since these two icons last shared the screen in 1980.
With Rajiv Menon handling cinematography and Red Giant Movies expected to produce, the film's promo shoot kicks off next week (early February 2026), followed by filming soon after.
The project's fast pace and comedic focus are expected to draw in both longtime fans and newer audiences looking for something fresh.
