The big news has come in! A new selfie picture of STR with ace director Mani Ratnam has been released on social media, which is getting viral.

We are told by our sources that STR had an acting rehearsal workshop with Mani Ratnam. Also, after the workshop, STR has apparently sought blessings from Mani Ratnam on his musical debut with Sakka Podu Podu Raja, which is all set to release on December 22.

Now, this new development has given a good sign that STR will be very much seen as Mani Ratnam’s hero. This yet-to-be-titled film has music by A.R.Rahman, cinematography by Santosh Sivan and editing by Sreekar Prasad.
