At the SIIMA Awards in Dubai, Kamal sparked fan frenzy when he opened up about the possibility of reuniting with Rajinikanth after decades.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><strong>What Kamal Haasan Said\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">Asked if fans could expect a film with Rajinikanth, Kamal said, \u201cWe don\u2019t know if it\u2019s a Tharamana Sambavam (wonderful occurrence) but it\u2019s good if the audience likes it. If they\u2019re happy, we\u2019ll like it. Otherwise, we\u2019ll 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\u2019ll come together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><strong>No rivalry, only respect<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">The veteran actor made it clear that there has never been a rivalry between the two. \u201cIt is you all who thought\/created the competition. We don\u2019t have any competition between us. It\u2019s important that we got the chance to do this. He is like that, so am I. It might be a surprise, business-wise, but we feel at least now it\u2019s happening. We always wanted to produce each other\u2019s films,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><strong>What we know so far<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">While Kamal stopped short of confirming details, strong buzz suggests the project could be helmed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. The filmmaker recently said he has cameos planned for the LCU and would want to bring Kamal back because he is a fan. Lokesh has earlier directed Kamal in Vikram and Rajinikanth in Coolie.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Fans, meanwhile, are already celebrating online, with many calling it the \u201cultimate Tamil cinema moment&#8221; if the film happens. Kamal Haasan was last seen in Mani Ratnam\u2019s Thug Life, which opened to mixed reviews at the box office and is now streaming on Netflix, while Rajinikanth\u2019s most recent outing was Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, which released in theatres last month.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/shreyanka-mugshot-2023-11-8ef8dd88a71f919244a2d2ecf14e4f84.jpg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/shreyanka-mazumdar-25843.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Shreyanka Mazumdar<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Shreyanka Mazumdar is Chief Sub Editor of the entertainment team at News18.
