Four days after releasing the Tamil trailer of their upcoming film Petta that stars Rajinikanth in the lead, Sun Pictures shared the film’s Hindi trailer on Wednesday.

Starring Thalaivar as Kaali, a hostel warden with a violent past, the Karthik Subbaraj film promises to be a complete action-packed mass entertainer with plenty whistle-out-loud moments to keep the superstar’s millions of fans happy.

The 2.29-minute video shows Rajinikanth doing it all from rolling cigarettes and wearing sunglasses in his characteristic style to romancing women half his age and dancing with carefree abandon.

The film, which is slated to release on January 10, 2019, also stars actors Vijay Sethupathi, Mega Akash, Bobby Simhaa, Trisha and Sasikumar in important roles, and marks the southern debut of Nawazuddin Siddiqui.

Talking about it, Rajinikanth had earlier said at Petta’s audio launch, “Karthik Subbaraj has taken me back to the 80s. Petta will be a very good entertainer, you will enjoy it on Pongal.”

Himself an ardent Rajini admirer, Subbaraj—best known for films like Jigarthanda and Pizza—said, "Petta is made by fans of Rajinikanth. We put in a lot of thought in filming every single shot of Rajinikanth sir.”

“Vijay Sethupathi is also a big Rajinikanth fan. He told me that one day I will direct Rajinikanth sir in a film. And when it happens, he will play the villain in the project. It was another dream come true moment to work with Nawazuddin Siddiqui sir. He is also a Rajini fan," he added.
