Finally, producer Soundarya Rajinikanth and director KS Ravikumar were forced to hold a press conference, to make clarifications about their Rana.

Daily rumours were making the rounds about Rekha demanding Rs 4 Crore, Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit and so many others approached for the film.

At a joint press conference attended by Soundarya and Ravikumar, things were made clear.

Said Ravikumar: " First and foremost, I would like to make it clear that Rana is not a new avatar of Sultan The Warrior. Both are different films, Rana is set in the 17th century, and the story plot is Rajinikanth's."

Ravikumar also made it clear that Rekha, Hema Malini, Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit, Ileana, Trisha and Asin, who were touted to be part of the project have never been approached. Said Ravikumar: “ “I just don’t understand how these rumours start.

As of now, only Deepika Padukone has been signed. Rajinikanth has three get up's and there are many other characters in the film. We are fine tuning the script and will start shoot only April end."

Rana is a big budget movie that will cost Rs 100 Crore plus and is produced by Eros International, AR Rahman is the music director with Ratnavel as the cameraman.
