Production on Rajinikanth's upcoming film Annaatthe has come to a halt after eight members of the film crew tested positive for COVID-19. According to producers Sun Pictures, Rajinikanth has tested negative for the virus.
Production on Annaatthe had earlier been stalled due to the nationwide lockdown. The last leg of the shoot resumed in the second week of December at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad. Rajinikanth reportedly agreed to return to the set as he wished to complete shooting before launching his political party in January 2021. Written and directed by Siva, Annaatthe also stars Keerthy Suresh, Nayanthara, Khushbu, Meena, Prakash Raj, Sathish and Soori.
