Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan launched the Hindi trailer of Tamil superstar and close friend Rajinikanth's upcoming film 'Kochadaiiyaan'. Bachchan, 71, alongwith the South legend launched the trailer here late last night at a suburban multiplex. Directed by Rajinikanth's daughter Soundarya, 'Kochadaiiyaan' is a hi-tech 3D film with photo-realistic motion capture technology also known as performance capturing technology, a first of this kind being produced in India.

Hollywood blockbuster films like 'Avatar', 'The Adventures of Tintin' have been produced with same performance capturing technology. "I am finding it difficult to find words to what we have witnessed now. Firstly, I will like to acknowledge that it is a woman who has directed this kind of a movie. With the kind of struggle our nation is going through (regards to women) it is commendable that Soundarya has done this and showed that women in India are capable to do best," Bachchan told reporters.
