Deepika Padukone: The South superhero romances our very own Deepika Padukone in the eagerly awaited Tamil film Kochadaiiyaan. Rajinikanth plays three lead roles- Kochadaiiyaan, Rana and Sena while Deepika Padukone plays Princess Vadhana. Using performance capturing technology, this film has garnered a lot of interest and has been directed by Rajinikanth's daughter Soundarya R. Ashwin. The veteran who is 63 years old, will be romancing Dips who is half his age. Deepika is only 28 years old. But age is no barrier for the superstar as a film with him ensures a sure shot hit. Hence, actresses from South and Bollywood line up to work with the sensation and Deepika is no exception!
Sonakshi Sinha: When Sonakshi Sinha made her debut with Dabangg, she was paired opposite Salman Khan who was much older than her. She went on to do films with her seniors including Akshay Kumar. So working with stars almost double her age is not a big deal for Sona. This time too, she will pair up with South sensation Rajinikanth for Lingaa'. Sonakshi makes her Tamil debut with this film and has reportedly started shooting for it in Mysore. According to an interview in the Indian Express, the actress was quoted saying, "Very few people in the industry get an opportunity to do a film with Rajinikanth. If I had to make a debut in South, it had to be something as big as this. I can't wait to begin shooting for him in May." Interestingly, the film has been named after Rajinikanth's grandson Linga, who happens to be actor Dhanush and Rajini's daughter Aishwaryaa's son.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has worked with all the big names in Bollywood- be it the Khans or Mr. Amitabh Bachchan. The pretty actress who has done films in Tamil, Bengali and Hollywood. So how could the former beauty queen not work with one of the biggest superstars and Demi gods in India, Rajinikanth. The two were paired opposite each other in the Tamil sci-fi thriller Enthiran where Rajini sir played dual roles as Dr. K. Vaseekaran and Chitti and Ash plays their love interest Sana. One of the world's most beautiful women joined hands with the Thalaiva to give one of the biggest hits of that year (2010). Enthiran was dubbed in Hindi as Robot. Interestingly, the South superstar is older to Ash by more than twenty years.
