At the airport, AR Rahman runs into Ilaiyaraaja and declares, “TN is always the destination”

At the airport, Ilaiyaraaja and I are both returning from separate countries, but our final destination is always Tamil Nadu, says AR Rahman.

The renowned composer Ilaiyaraaja and composer AR Rahman shared a selfie video on Instagram on Thursday when they crossed paths at Chennai International Airport. Both of them were returning from different countries, but Tamil Nadu was their final destination, according to AR Rahman’s caption.

We are returning from many continents, but our final destination is always Tamil Nadu (sic),” AR Rahman said as the video’s caption. Ilaiyaraaja was arriving from Budapest as AR Rahman was departing from the US, he said. At the Chennai airport, both ran into one another.

Fans expressed their delight at seeing them interact in the comments area. Many of them used heart emojis in their replies. The image was dubbed legendary and epic by some. Enough happiness for the day (sic), read one comment. The best post to start our day with, according to singer Nivas.

Ponniyin Selvan, the upcoming film from Mani Ratnam, is something AR Rahman is eagerly anticipating. This is his fifteenth endeavour with the seasoned veteran.

At the CII Dakshin 2022 – South India Media & Entertainment Summit, which was put on by the CII, Southern Region, AR Rahman recently made a comment regarding the representation of South Indian actors in films. AR Rahman gave a powerful speech about celebrating differences and bringing people together via art.

He cited an incident during his seven-year vacation to Malaysia, saying, “I met a Chinese guy there. He was a gentleman. He was expressing his preference for India and the fairer people of North India. Their films are far more endearing.

The statement, according to AR Rahman, severely distressed him. “I was baffled as to how he arrived at the opinion that North India is superior. I questioned whether he had ever seen southern-produced movies. I felt quite uneasy. Casting people with colour, in my humble view, is what we need to do. Make them more effective. Give them personas that will elevate them. South Indians should prioritise this since we value our culture.

Azaad teaser: Ajay Devgn teams up with Aaman Devgan, Rasha Thadani for Tarzan: Wonder Car sequel… but with a horse

Ajay Devgn’s upcoming film Azaad features Rasha Thadani and Aaman Devgan, exploring a family’s bond with their horse in Pre-Independence India.

Ajay Devgn has shared the teaser for his next movie, a period film about a family’s love for their loyal horse. Titled Azaad, the movie also stars Ajay’s nephew Aaman Devgan and Raveena Tandon‘s daughter Rasha Thadani.

The film seems sets in Pre-Independence India where Ajay is a master horse rider who shares beautiful bond with his horse. He escapes brutal English armies and leaps over valleys but the horse, in between all this, goes missing. The younger boy, played by Aaman is tasked with finding him. (Also read: Watched Singham Again? Ajay Devgn to star in 3 more sequels)

Rasha plays the rich young girl from an opulent family but the teaser shows her for only two short moments.

The trailer does give us a few Tarzan: The Wonder Car flashbacks. In the 2004 movie, Ajay plays a ghost who possesses his custom-made car to help his son fight the villains who murdered him. Of course, Ajay’s character looks well and alive here, but does seem to be teaching him how to strike a bond with the family horse.

The film is helmed by Abhishek Kapoor, known for films like Kai Po Che, Kedarnath, Rock On and Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui. Produced by industry stalwarts Ronnie Screwvala and Pragya Kapoor, ‘Azaad’ is set for release on the big screen in January 2025. Sharing the teaser on social media, Kapoor wrote, “Har jung mein, har bahadur yodha ke saath, ek wafadaar ghoda zaroor raha hai. 🐎 #Azaad Teaser Out Now. Witness the adventure on big screens this January2025.”

About Rasha Thadani

Rasha is the daughter of Raveena and Anil Thadani. Ahead of her Bollywood debut, Rasha told HT about the lessons she got from her mum, and she will continue to do so. “My mom’s guidance is invaluable to me, not because she’s an actor, but because she’s my mom. She has handled herself with such grace and maturity, and I want to be like her 100%. She is my role model so of course I look up to her for everything,” says Rasha, and mentions, “I would still go to her for career advice even if she wasn’t a part of the film industry. She always has my back and would always want the best for me.”
