‘In awe of Thalaivar’s performance’ in Lal Salaam, Vishnu Vishal gushes over Rajinikanth

Vishnu Vishal and Vikranth-starrer Lal Salaam is gearing up for its grand release on February 9. Now as per latest updates, actor Vishnu Vishal has completed his dubbing portions. The actor, who took to his social media handles to share pics from the dubbing studio, could not stop gushing about superstar Rajinikanth’s acting prowess in the film. The veteran superstar will be seen in an extended cameo appearance in the film, which is helmed by Aishwarya Rajinikanth.  

While sharing the pics, Vishnu Vishal wrote, “#lalsalaam, Dubbing done...In awe of thalaivar's performance.Trust me guys...It's gonna be a great watch...So damn excited to see u all soon in theatres on February 9th…Proud to be a part of this movie.” (sic).  

Lal Salaam, which will arrive at the theatres on February 9, will also be clashing with other releases including Manikandan-starrer romantic drama Lover and Tovino Thomas-starrer Malayalam investigative thriller Anweshippin Kandethum. But as a Rajinikanth-starrer, Lal Salaam potentially has more edge over other films at the box office.
