Director Sundar C has stepped down from Thalaivar 173, the highly anticipated Rajinikanth film produced by Kamal Haasan under RKFI. Citing “unforeseen and unavoidable circumstances,” he expressed regret, calling the venture a “dream come true” and thanking both icons for their faith. Reports suggest his exit stems from creative differences: while Rajinikanth liked the core idea, he allegedly requested major script changes. Despite the blow, Kamal Haasan has stepped in to steady the project, though a new director has not yet been announced. (PC: X)
