Superstar Rajinikanth’s Tamil film Kabali features a heroic fire sequence with over 200 extras.

The scene is said to have been recently canned by the team here in a studio.

“This scene is part of the flashback portion in the film. It features over 200 extras and Rajinikanth comes to their rescue. Actors Ramesh and John Vijay, who essay important roles in the film, are also a part of this scene” a source from the film’s unit said.

The particular scene, according to the source, was shot in Paramount Studio in Chennai.

Being directed by Pa. Ranjith, the film features megastar Rajinikanth in the role of a don, and his role is inspired from a real life gangster.

The film also features Radhika Apte, Dhanshikaa, Dinesh and Kalaiarasan in important roles.

The crew has left for Malaysia where they will start a fresh schedule this week.
