Rajinikanth’s upcoming action film “Dharman” has added another high-profile name. The makers announced on Wednesday that Sreeleela has boarded the cast, with Raaj Kamal Films International posting a welcome that described her as having “the spark” and “the pataka” (firecracker). The announcement video features a classical music track composed by Anirudh Ravichander. This is Sreeleela’s first collaboration with Rajinikanth, and her role is described only as a key one, with no character details revealed. theprintglamsham

A Star-Studded Ensemble

Sreeleela joins a cast that already includes Nayanthara, whose entry was announced a few days earlier, along with Simran, Yogi Babu and Rashii Khanna. Rajinikanth plays a doctor who takes on criminals, and the film has completed its third shooting schedule. Posters released so far show Rajinikanth with blood on his hands, hinting at a darker, morally grey side to the character. Makers have described him as “Ketta Paiyan,” meaning “bad boy,” a name that recalls his famous 1978 role in “Mullum Malarum.” telanganatoday

A Busy Year For Sreeleela

Sreeleela made her Tamil debut this year with “Parasakthi,” opposite Sivakarthikeyan, Ravi Mohan and Atharvaa. She is also part of “Dare Devil,” starring Ajith Kumar and directed by Adhik Ravichandran. Working with Rajinikanth adds a second Tamil superstar to a fast-growing list for an actress who has risen quickly in the industry. glamsham
