Chennai, March 28 : Rajinikanth has started dubbing for his upcoming Tamil period-drama "Kochadaiyaan" and the work pace of the southern superstar has amazed Oscar-winning sound engineer Resul Pookutty.

"Rajini sir began dubbing for the film yesterday (Wednesday). He has already completed the first half and is likely to complete the rest in a day or two," a source from the film's until told IANS.
Meanwhile the rest of the crew is busy with post-production work in China.
Pookutty is working with the superstar closely for dubbing.
