After the releasing his latest movie Bodyguard, producer Atul Agnihotri has changed his focus on his next project. The actor-truned-producer is now concentrating on his upcoming biopic on southern superstar Rajinikanth, which will be directed by Atul's friend and ad filmmaker Lloyd Ba Pista.

Atul Agnihotri opines that Rajinikanth is a superstar of Indian cinema and making a film on him is not an easy job. He says, “Making a film on him will be an enriching experience for us.” The Bollywood producer has not taken the approval from the Tamil actor and is yet to know about his contribution. Currently, his team is working on the logistics and soon he will come with more details of the film.
Meanwhile, Atul Agnihotri also reveals that his friend Lloyd Ba Pista came up with the idea of making a film on Rajinikanth. He says that he found his concept to be interesting and thought it would be a great project. So he has come forward to help him out to do the project. “We have to make it entertaining without losing the honesty of the story," the Mid Day quotes Agnihotri as saying.
However, Atul Agnihotri has not yet finalised the lead character of the biopic. When asked about whether he would rope in Salman Khan to play Rajinikanth in it, the producer says, “We don't know. We are working out and it would be great if he (Salman) becomes part of it in any which way. Let's see, Lloyd is still working on the script and going back and forth.”
