Vijay in Varisu

After much speculation, it was officially announced recently that Varisu will hit the screens on January 12. The Vijay-starrer directed by Vamshi Paidipally is riding on high expectations. Its first single Ranjithame, crooned by Vijay himself along with Manasi, has sent the star's fans into a tizzy.

Now, the team has come up with an update on its much-awaited second single. It will be unveiled at 4 pm on December 4. Interestingly, the track has been titled Thee Thalapathy. There are unconfirmed reports of Silambarasan having lent voice for a song in the film. Fans have to wait for two more days to know if it's true.

The collaboration of Vijay and Silambarasan will surely leave both their fans excited. They are now curious  to know the genre of the song. Going by its title, it looks like the song is likely to be a fan-pleasing number with repeat-worthy tunes from Thaman.

A few exhibitors in Tamil Nadu have started confirming the screening of Varisu in their theatres for the Pongal festival. Seven Screen Studio has bagged the film's theatrical rights while Amazon Prime Video has acquired its digital rights.

The film, touted as a family drama, brings together Vijay and Prakash Raj after more than a decade's hiatus. Sarath Kumar and Prabhu among others are other veterans who will be seen essaying notable characters in the film produced by Dil Raju. The movie is expected to be released in a huge number of theatres in Telugu states as well.

Varisu is Vijay's Pongal release after a two-year hiatus. Lokesh Kanagaraj's Master was his last film which was released for the much-anticipated festival.
