Lingaa is the second son of actor Dhanush and his wife Aishwarya, who is Rajinikanth's daughter. Rajinikanth has earlier worked with ace filmmaker KS Ravikumar in his hit Tamil movies like Muthu (1995) and Padayappa (1999). For the time, the Superstar will collaborate the director in next film Lingaaa. A source from the film unit told, "The film has been titled Lingaa. If all goes well, we might start shooting from the first week of May. I can't reveal more details about the project at the moment."
                   Director KS Ravikumar shared a poster titled Lingaa on his official Facebook page on Tuesday. In the poster, actresses Sonakshi Sinha and Anushka Shetty and AR Rahman are featured with the superstar. Oscar-award-winning composer AR Rahman will compose the tunes for the film, which will be his seventh project with Rajinikanth. Three and half years after the release of Endhiran, Rajinikanth is once again all set to strike the screens.

One Bail costs One iPhone

That’s because the timber targets used in the tournament are special and not easily replaceable. Decked with LEDs that flicker on the slightest impact with the ball, the stumps are made of composite plastic and have sensors connected to a microprocessor.

The high-tech stumps, marketed as ‘Zings’ by an Australian firm, are expensive and thus precious.

“We have $40,000 worth of patented technology out on the field at each game and that is a lot of money. Each bail costs as much as an iPhone. We can’t afford to give them away to players at the end of a game,” says Zings inventor Bronte Eckermann.

He is always stationed next to the boundary rope and gets restless towards the end of the game. “I will chase the players and get the stumps and bails back if they try to get away with them,” he adds with a hearty laugh.

Eckermann’s ‘glowing stumps’ might be making their debut at an ICC event but they have been used in T20 leagues in Australia, New Zealand and the West Indies. The one-time batsman who opened for Adelaide district says that despite the extensive use of his invention across the world, the ‘Zings’ have never failed him nor have they been broken. “Although the other day my heart was in the mouth when Malinga got those yorkers going against India,” he says. The ‘lighted stumps’ were used in both of India’s warm up games — the most-watched matches in the initial phase — and will be a regular feature in the second phase of the tournament.

Eureka moment

The cricket addict’s ‘eureka’ moment arrived when he was at home watching a game on television. “My daughter was playing with a ball that lit up when it was thrown. I was hoping to produce something that would add value to T20 cricket. I was also excited about LED technology,” recalls Eckermann as he talks about his invention.

Off the shelf or online, Eckermann’s bails cost just $25.

This ‘garden variety’ Zing doesn’t have sensors in the spigot that triggers lights within a millisecond of it coming off the grove on the stumps and caters to kids shopping for cricket equipment for backyard games.

“Widespread use of Zings will bring down the cost. Our main aim is to help umpires make better decisions when it comes to close run-outs or stumping. May be a few years down the line, I can allow the players to keep the bails and stumps after a final,” he says.

Until then, players will have to show restraint at the end of the game and Eckermann will continue to be restless off the field.
