Kochadaiyaan Rana Dheeran 

Eros International announced yesterday that Kochadaiyan will be Rajnikanth's next movie followed by Rana. Movie fans were confused by all these conflicting messages and extended a muted excitement which was totally uncharacteristic of Rajni movie's announcement. After carefully looking into all the events over last 4 years, this is what we deciphered,

Sultan = Rana = Dheera = Kochadaiyan

When you dig up Tamil history and flash back to the 8th century, you will find that that a Pandya king by the name Kochadaiyan Ranadhiran reigned from 710-735 AD.  Kochadaiyan asserted his superiority over the Cheras and Cholas and subdued the Marathas in the city of Mangalapuram (the modern day Mangalore). Also, Pandya rulers were sincere devotees of Lord Shiva and hence the unique name Kochadaiyan which means KO(king) + Chadaiyan (Shiva).  

Connecting the dots, it is quite obvious that portions of all these movie titles (Kochadaiyan, Rana, Dheera), supposedly for different projects as claimed by Producers, were all pulled out from the name of the same historic character, Kochadaiyan Ranadhiran.
