Vettaiyan movie
After dealing with an intense subject in Jai Bhim, Director TJ Gnanavel takes a different turn for Vettaiyan. The plot focuses on an encounter specialist who undergoes a series of ordeals when he investigates an educational scam. Alongside Rajnikanth and Amitabh Bachchan, Vettaiyan also stars Fahadh Faasil, Rana Daggubati, and Dushara Vijayan in pivotal roles.
The Kollywood action becomes iconic in bringing Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan back together on the big screen after 33 years, allotting significant screen time. The two icons last appeared in the 1991 action-drama Hum.
Amitabh Bachchan and Rajnikanth are back after 33 years
The first 30 minutes of Vettaiyan has Rajnikanth in the spotlight. Soon after, it turns into a fast-paced investigative thriller as the movie continues.
While Bachchan and Rajnikanth have collaborated in the past on movies like Andhaa Kaanoon (1983) and Geraftaar (1985), Tamil iconoclast Rajinikanth either made cameo appearances or played supporting parts in the films.
