The KH and RK written on the poster with a vintage car in the background was enough to spark speculation about Rajinikanth and Kamal’s collaboration.
The production house teased the announcement with a poster that read, “When the stars align, you don’t choose sides.”
Some stories follow the rules.
Some films rewrite them.
Stay curious. Stay excited.

Soon, fans took to social media to share their excitement.
Reacting to the poster, one commented, “Some men set rules… some men just rule. And these two? They defined eras.”
“The King & The Emperor. One Frame. Zero Rules,” wrote another.
Another commented, “Thalaivar X Nayagan coming.”
Speaking to media in September last year, Rajinikanth had said, “We are going to do a film with Raaj Kamal Films International and Red Giant Movies. The director has not yet been decided. Kamal and I want to do a film together. If we get a story and role, we will act.”
At SIIMA, Kamal also spoke about it and said, “We don’t know if it’s a Tharamana Sambavam (wonderful occurrence), but it’s good if the audience likes it. If they’re happy, we’ll like it. Otherwise, we’ll continue trying. This was long coming. We were separate because they gave one biscuit to both of us. But the half biscuit makes us both happy, so we’ll come together.”
In October, when Shruti Haasan and Soundarya Rajinikanth were asked about Rajini and Kamal’s collaboration, Shruti replied, “We also wish for it. We are also waiting like you.”
Soundarya added, “It would be correct if our fathers gave the update. But definitely, Appa will work in Kamal uncle’s banner (Raaj Kamal Films International). What kind of movie it will be, and all those details are a work in progress. So, Thalaiva himself will reveal it soon.”
Rajinikanth and Kamal are also teaming up for a film helmed by Cibi Chakaravarthi and produced by Kamal’s banner.
