Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan and legendary director Mani Ratnam will be re-uniting after 35 years, after their cult action drama Nayakudu which was released in 1987. The film tentatively titled #KH234 has been announced officially today, a day prior to Kamal’s birthday.
Kamal Haasan, Mani Ratnam, R Mahendran, and Siva Ananth will be producing the movie under their banners Raaj Kamal Films International and Madras Talkies. Udhayanidhi Stalin’s Red Giant Movies presents the film.
The magical combination of two legends Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam will have music by AR Rahman. The makers have also announced to release the movie in 2024.
Kamal Haasan said, “I was equally excited 35 years before when I was about to start work with Mr. Mani Ratnam. Collaborating with a similar mindset is stimulating.
This stimulation includes Mr. Rahman as well. Eagerly looking forward to presenting this venture with Mr. Udhayanidhi Stalin.”
Mani Ratnam said, “Happy, honoured and excited to collaborate with Kamal Sir again.”
Producer Udhayanidhi Stalin said, “It’s a wonderful opportunity to join Kamal Sir in presenting ‘Ulaganayagan KH 234’ after the great success of Vikram and the much-awaited Indian 2. An absolute honour to present this film and tell this special story.
Kamal sir and Mani sir have been the pride of Tamil cinema globally and I have been an ardent admirer of both these iconic personalities. Thank you Kamal sir for this great opportunity.”
