Earlier, IANS had reported that Rajinikanth had entered into a two-film deal with Lyca Productions. `Lal Salaam` is one of the two films for which the superstar has signed up. 
 
The production house also released a poster of the film that showed a cricket helmet burning in what looked like a place hit by riots. Interestingly, both the actors chosen to play the lead in the film -- Vikranth and Vishnu Vishal -- are known to be good cricketers, giving rise to speculation if whether the story of the film will revolve around cricketers affected by riots.
