The cameos, especially the much-hyped ‘surprise’ ones, might not have the same kind of impact Shiva Rajkumar, Mohanlal and Jackie Shroff did in the first part, but they still hook you. When a 75-year-old who has slowed down and is playing a grandfather can so easily outdo younger heroes in a commercial film, there’s not much more to add. And maybe, that's all fans need.”What's next for Rajinikanth?Rajinikanth will next be seen in Dharman (Thalaivar 173). He will then reunite with Kamal Haasan for the much-awaited KHxRK, marking another major collaboration between the two veteran actors. Nayanthara is also a part of the project.
