Rajinikanth not doing item number in 'Talaash'

Reema Kagti director of "Talaash" has refuted the claims of Rajinikanth doing an item number for a song-and-dance sequence in the upcoming movie. This rumor has left the legendary superstar's camp flummoxed.

The superstar's associates have said that he is not amused with the news either.

In the meanwhile Reema Kagti has denied the reports that Rajinikanth is doing an item boy for the Aamir Khan-starrer movie.

As per reports, the legendary actor is busy with his southern project.

A source close to iconic actor said: "At the moment Rajiniji is completely involved with every department of his new film 'Kochadaiyyan'. He is not even looking at doing any other work. He spends all his time with the post-production team.

"He is helping his daughter (Soundarya) with the editing, mixing, background score. Most of all, Rajiniji wants to make sure that the special effects for the action sequences come out perfectly. For that he insists on flying out with the technical team to London each time they need to work on the effects."

The superstar's associate further said: "At first Rajiniji's family took the rumors of an item song in their stride. But now the reports are getting increasingly inventive."
