A massive generational pairing is generating immense buzz in South Indian cinema. Legendary actor Rajinikanth and young actress Sreeleela—spanning an age gap of nearly 50 years—are set to star together in the upcoming movie Dharman. The film's production house officially confirmed Sreeleela's casting, releasing a special video welcome on social media.
Directed by Ashwath Marimuthu, Dharman marks the first collaboration between the filmmaker and Rajinikanth, as well as Sreeleela's first film sharing screen space with the legendary actor. Alongside the lead duo, the movie features an ensemble stellar cast including Simran, Nayanthara, Yogi Babu, and Raashii Khanna. Teasers indicate Rajinikanth may essay the role of a doctor, though promotional materials hint at a grey-shaded character described as 'Ketta Paiyan' (bad man).
