Rajinikanth phoned Deepika Padukone!

South Indian superstar Rajinikanth is currently in Singapore for rest and recuperation, yet he is very keen on his upcoming project Rana.

Reports said that the actor is making calls to all the cast and crew of Rana, including director K.S. Ravikumar and lyricist Vairamuthu, to know about the updates of the pre-production work.

In the latest report, Rajinikanth phoned Deepika Padukone and asked her to adjust her call sheets for Rana, which is expected to commence in September.

Deepika was thrilled to hear from him and is said to have assured him that she would adjust her call sheets for Rana, which has been delayed due to Rajni's ill health.
