Kuselan crew including the superstar is stationed in Hyderabad for the first schedule of the shoots that is planned for 40 days. Rajini plays himself in the movie and scenes of him acting in front of the camera are being shot with numerous other co-stars from the industry. A quick glance at the shoot spot – Ramojji Rao Studio – makes it appear as if Kodambakkam has shifted grounds to Hyderabad Actors who took part in the filming of a song sequence include Prabhu, Pasupathy, Livingston, Vadivelu, Nizhalgal Ravi, M.S. Bhaskar, Vaiyapuri, Sandanabharathi, Madhan Bob, Mohanram, O.A.K. Sundar, Manobala, Nayanthara, Kushboo, Mamtha, Sneha, Jegapathy Babu, and Sunil. If that is not enough, the extended casting also included more than 1000 junior artistes. While Kuselan progresses this way, the mammoth task of handling the massive star cast without a hitch is being managed by director Vasu.
Kuselan revolves around the central characters Pasupathy and Meena and the actor – Rajinikanth – who visits the couple's village for a shooting. The movie is slated for a mid 2008 release.
