While Bollywood Star Akshay Kumar is roped as antagonist for Super Star Rajinikanth in ‘Robt 2.0’ currently under production mode, latest we hear is director Ranjith Pa of ‘Kabali’ is also looking for bigger attraction than Akshay Kumar. If reports are to be believed, makers are looking at East to bring Jet Li into the casting for villain character in ‘Kabali.’
In this regards, makers have met six actors including Jet Li. Others in the list are Donnie Yen from ‘IP Man’ series, Winston Chao from ‘Zhong Kui Snow Girl’ and ‘The Dark Crystal,’ Simon Yam of ‘Lara Croft Tomb Raider’, Jiang Wen from ‘Gone With The Bullets’ and Chow Yun Fat of ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean: At Worlds End.’
As and when one of them will be finalized, an official announcement is expected. Reports suggest, Jet Li is the frontrunner and once Rajinikanth takes the final decision, he will join the shooting.
