Nelson Dilipkumar's vision expands for 'KH x RK': Mammootty likely to join; Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan align schedules

The upcoming KH x RK Reunion, directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, is shaping into Tamil cinema’s biggest collaboration as Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan reunite after decades. Filming is expected to start only by late 2026 or early 2027 once both complete their current commitments, including Rajinikanth’s Thalaivar 173. Major buzz now surrounds Mammootty, who has reportedly been approached for a guest role as an old gangster friend of Kamal’s character. If confirmed, the film will mark rare on-screen combinations and one of the industry’s most historic multistarers.
