Rana (Tamil: ராணா) is a forthcoming Tamil historical action film supposed to be directed by K. S. Ravikumar. Starring Rajinikanth, Deepika Padukone, and Sonu Sood in lead roles,[1][2] the film will be jointly produced by Ocher Picture Productions and Eros International. The film will feature cinematography by R. Rathnavelu and music by Oscar] winning composer A. R. Rahman.[3] With filming to start in April 2011, the film is expected to be simultaneously made in Hindi and dubbed in Telugu,[4] all three of which are slated for release in 2012.[5][6]

Development
During late-2010, reports suggested that Rana would be the new title of Soundarya Rajnikanth's self-produced, directed, and designed film Hara, an animation film that began production in 2007, featuring her father Rajnikanth in the title role.[7] It was also reported that K. S. Ravikumar was signed up as co-director to direct "non-animated" scenes of the film, in which Rajinikanth would pair up with Trisha Krishnan.[8][9] The reports were later falsified as several websites on January 28, 2011 claimed that Rana was a separate project, jointly produced by Eros International and Soundarya's Ocher Picture Productions.[10][11]
Confusions of Rana being the "revival" of Hara were cleared as both Ocher and Eros denied the claims, stating that Rana was "a fresh script" and will be shot as live action while Hara was still under production, likely to be released after the former.[12][1]
Casting
The film was dubbed as a "Rajinikanth-starrer" when it was first announced, adding that Rajinikanth would feature in three different roles in the film. Before the film's official announcement, Trisha Krishnan was reported to be signed up for a lead role,[9] but was eventually false. Later reports stated that Anushka Shetty, Deepika Padukone, Asin, Madhuri Dixit, and Sneha were approached for lead roles.[13][14][15] So far, only Padukone has been signed up,[16] making it her debut in Tamil cinema. Sonu Sood who previously appeared as a supporting character with Rajinikanth in Chandramukhi (2005) was signed to play the film's antagonist.[17]
The film is expected to sport an extensive technical crew. R. Rathnavelu will be the film's cinematographer.[18] Rajeevan was signed up as art director.[18] S. Ramakrishnan was signed up as the film's dialogue writer.[19] Anthony and A. R. Rahman will work as the film's editor and composer, respectively.[20]
