Later in 2007, it was reported that his daughter Soundarya Rajinikanth would direct her maiden venture with her father in the lead, also stating that it would be an animated film. Her fame rose from working in S. J. Suryah's Anbe Aaruyire in 2004 as a computer graphic specialist. When Sivaji: The Boss made its theatrical release, previews of Sultan The Warrior were shown with an animated Rajinikanth dressed in a medival attire, also stating that it would be released in 2010.

The next year, it was reported that her home production company, Ocher Studios, had joined hands with Warner Bros. Entertainments, thus, Warner Bros. would distribute Sultan The Warrior, once it was released. Animation of the film is to be done by a Chennai-based animation studio, along with international specialists. The soundtrack for the film is being composed by two-time Academy Award-winner A. R. Rahman.
