Rajinikanth's family to make a biopic on the icon

10 Aug 2016

The super-iconic Rajinikanth's family is all set to make a bio-pic on Rajinikanth's life.

According to sources close to the family, it's an idea the family has lived closely with for many years. But now when Rajinikanth's new release Kabali has placed him on a pedestal way above anything in the past, plans to film the man's rise from bus conductor to demi-god is all set to be placed on film.

Confirming this development, Rajinikanth's younger daughter Soundarya says, "Yes, we are planning a film on my father's life. My sister Aishwarya is writing a book on my Dad. The film seems a natural progression from there." Soundarya says the idea of a film has been with the family for long. "The thought of making a film on Dad has been haunting us of late. His life is inspirational for so many." The film will focus on well-known facts from Rajinikanth's life as well undisclosed aspects of the mega-star's life. "There are certain areas of his life that no one knows about. We want to put that also in the film. As a daughter and his devoted fan, I love watching him on screen. And would love to see a film on him."
