Shankar meets Rajinikanth on Lingaa sets; Enthiran 2 on the anvil?

The grapevine in K’town is rife that Shankar is working on the sequel to the blockbuster hit Enthiran. Reliable sources reveal us that Shankar has met Rajinikanth on the sets of Lingaa in Hyderabad for initial discussion on the film. The buzz is Reliance Entertainment and Eros International are bargaining hard to produce the film. It is also being discussed in hushed whispers that Reliance Entertainment is also looking forward to purchase the distribution rights for Shankar and Vikram’s Ai which is currently in the post-production stage.

Eros International has more chances to helm the project since they have a good rapport with Rajinikanth. It is worth bringing to your attention that Eros was one of the first production houses to back Endhiran before withdrawing from the project citing financial crunch. Or will Enthiran 2 be produced by Eros International and Reliance Entertainment together?

We’ll keep you updated on all the latest developments on Enthiran 2. Stay Tuned!

PS: In January 2008, Eros International and Ayngaran announced that they will jointly produce Enthiran before Sun Pictures lapped up the project.
