It would be an understatement to say that Lokesh Kanagaraj's next film, temporarily titled Thalaivar 171 , is one of the most awaited movies. Film buffs are excited to see what Lokesh has envisioned for this film, headlined by Superstar Rajinikanth.
Lokesh's projects have always benefited from generating massive pre-release hype. One reason for this is Lokesh's penchant for bringing multiple stars together in the same film, and Thalaivar 171 is no exception.
The latest industry buzz suggests that Lokesh is considering casting Bollywood star Ranveer Singh for a key role in the movie. With the filmmakers keeping details of the film's supporting cast and crew under wraps, the rumour mill is in overdrive.
High-anticipation for Rajinikanth's Thalaivar 171
However, fans anticipate that there will be some clarity on the matter when the filmmakers unveil the announcement teaser along with the official title for Thalaivar 171 on August 22. "I am still writing for it. Work is in progress," Lokesh said when asked for an update on the teaser. The teaser is expected to be a huge treat for fans of Rajinikanth.
Lokesh has made it a habit to release high-voltage announcement teasers before the regular shoot of his movies. It started with Kamal Haasan's Vikram and continued with Thalapathy Vijay's Leo. Now, with the upcoming teaser launch for Thalaivar 171, it has become a ritual for the director.
Lokesh manages to capture the imagination of people with his teasers and keep them hooked on the project throughout production and post-production, ensuring an earth-shattering opening for his movies.
It's worth noting that the first look poster of Thalaivar 171, released last week, was a big hit. The poster revealed Rajinikanth's dashing look, which is a mix of both retro and modern, creating considerable anticipation for the teaser launch.
