Actress Khushbu Sundar might land a pivotal role in superstar Rajinikanth’s yet-untitled next film, to be directed by Pa. Ranjith of Kabali fame, a source said.

Sundar and Rajinikanth, in their heyday, have starred in Tamil films such as Mannan, Pandian and Annamalai.

“It’s true that Khushbhu is being considered for one of the leading roles. The makers have even initiated talks. However, she hasn’t officially signed the project yet. One of the reasons being a Telugu project with Pawan Kalyan and she fears the dates for the both the projects will clash,” said the source.

To be produced by Dhanush, the project is expected to begin production in May.

The makers are in talks with Bollywood actress Vidya Balan for the leading lady’s role.
