‘Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth share a good bond.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

After decades of anticipation, Tamil cinema\u2019s biggest icons are set to share the screen once again. Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth, two legends of Indian cinema, are reportedly reuniting for a film after an extraordinary gap of 46 years. The project is said to be helmed by hitmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj. The two actors last collaborated in the late 1970s and early 1980s, appearing together in several memorable films across Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, and even Hindi cinema.<\/p>\n

At the recently concluded SIIMA 2025 in Dubai, filmmaker Suhasini Mani Ratnam, who is also Kamal Haasan\u2019s niece, talked about the bond between the two icons. Describing them as \u201cbrothers,” she spoke up on the deep respect and friendship that has endured between Rajinikanth and Kamal for decades.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo they are actually like brothers,” she said. Suhasini also revealed that they check up on each other, stating, \u201cSometimes, if he (Kamal) ever gets into an accident while shooting, Rajini sir will call me and say, is Kamal hurting?” If I say yes, he replies, if Kamal says it hurts, it really must be hurting because he never complains. They are very close like that.”<\/p>\n

Speculation around a Rajinikanth\u2013Kamal Haasan reunion has been swirling ever since Rajinikanth playfully hinted at the idea during the launch event of his upcoming film Coolie. At the time, the superstar remarked that he initially thought Kamal, who stars in Thug Life, had been brought in for a cameo role.<\/p>\n

Those whispers grew louder when Kamal himself addressed the possibility at the SIIMA 2025 ceremony in Dubai. Without directly confirming details, he acknowledged the excitement surrounding the rumours and offered a characteristically witty take. \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,” Kamal said, drawing cheers from the audience.<\/p>\n

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,” he added.<\/p>\n

Kamal and Rajinikanth have worked together in films like Apoorva Raagangal, Anthuleni Katha, Moondru Mudichu, Avargal, Thappu Thalangal, Ninaithale Inikkum and Thillu Mullu.<\/p>\n

Rajinikanth most recently appeared in Lokesh Kanagaraj\u2019s action entertainer Coolie, while Kamal Haasan was last seen headlining Mani Ratnam\u2019s much-talked-about project Thug Life.<\/p>\n
