We've heard a lot of false release dates for Kochadaiyaan for the last one and a half years. But now finally the film's co-producer Dr. Murli Manohar confirms, "We are aiming at a 12 December, 2013 release for the film, finally. It's been a long struggle. But we wanted Rajiniji's fans to get the most perfect film after a 3-year wait. I think we've achieved what we set out to do."
The film's music by A R Rahman will be released in October.
The release of Kochadaiyaan in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and several other languages including Japanese makes it the most global Rajinikanth release ever.
It looks like Deepika Padukone who plays Rajinikanth's female lead in Kochadaiyaan would have 4 back-to-back blockbusters in 2013. While Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and Chennai Express have already smashed box-office records, Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Ram Leela and Kochadaiyaan which Rajinikanth's daughter Soundarya directs would consolidate Deepika's position as the no.1 Bollywood diva.
Interestingly, this special-effects laden action film Kochadaiyaan comes just a week ahead of Yash Raj'sDhoom 3 which releases on 20 December.
