Bollywood actresses Deepika Padukone will attend the audio launch of superstar Rajnikanth's Tamil period-drama "Kochadaiiyaan" here Sunday.
Deepika essays the role of princess Vadhana in the film, which is directed by Rajnikanth's daughter Soundarya Rajnikanth Ashwin.
"(I'm) very happy (that) Deepika Padukone, our princess Vadhana, will be in Chennai for the audio launch," posted Soundarya on her Twitter page.
Besides Deepika, Shah Rukh Khan will be present at the event.
