The makers of Rajinikanth's big budget movie announced its title and unveiled the first look over the weekend. The film has been titled Petta and Rajinikanth in the motion poster is everything you want him to be. 

 

The first look features Rajini entering a church with a swag that we loved. The swanky look of Thalaivar in Petta will leave every fan asking for more.  The motion poster seems to be a treat for the fans. Petta was being referred to as Thalaivar 165 indicating it will be the 165th film in Rajinikanth's career. 

 

 

The film is Rajinikanth’s first collaboration with director Karthik Subbaraj. The cast includes Vijay Sethupathi, Simran, Trisha, Bobby Simhaa, Sananth Reddy and Megha Akash. Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui will be making his debut with Petta in Tamil and will be seen playing the antagonist. The music of the film is being composed by Anirudh Ravichander and will be his first ever film with the superstar. 

Petta is expected to release next year.
