Rajinikanth is all set to portray the role of a cop in Darbar. The film, also starring Nayanthara, is being directed by AR Murugadoss and marks the first collaboration between Rajinikanth and Murugadoss. Incidentally, the film also marks the 167th film in the superstar's career.
Prateik Babbar will be seen in Darbar as the antagonist. The actor will be working with Rajinikanth and Murugadoss for the first time. "It is such a dream come true to have bagged this project in such little time. This year is looking very positive for me and Sanya (Sagar) has been such a great influence on my life professionally and personally," he said in a statement.
Pattas, on the other hand, is helmed by Durai Senthil Kumar and will see Dhanush play dual roles. The film also stars Sneha and Mehreen Pirzada in the lead.
