Apparently, Mani Ratnam’s next, after part 2 of the pseudo-historical Ponniyin Selvan will feature Rajinikanth. The last time that Mani and Rajini came together it was for the explosive action-filled blockbuster Dalapathi in 1991.

Sources from Chennai say Mani Ratnam and Rajinikanth have zeroed in on the subject .The rest of the details will be finalized after the release of Ponniyin Selvan 2.
