The latest buzz about Superstar Rajinikanth’s first animation film, which has now been reportedly renamed as ‘Rana’ (‘Sultan’ and ‘Hara’ were the earlier names), is that, it would have Trisha in an important role.

“The movie would have some scenes in which the real Rajini would appear. Trisha would share the screen space with the Superstar in those scenes, which would be directed by K S Ravikumar,” sources say.

Produced and directed by Soundarya Rajinikanth, the first of its kind movie already has Vijayalakshmi of ‘Chennai 28’ and ‘Anjathey’ fame as heroine. Music is by Oscar-Grammy winner A R Rahman.

Though the film went on floors more than three years ago, it is taking time to hit the screens as it involves a lot of animation and computer graphic works, which are being done using state-of-the-art technology.
