Thalapathy Vijay is set to take a long break from films for his political career, after the completion of his 69th film. Earlier, it was almost confirmed that the superstar is teaming up with talented filmmaker H Vinoth for the project, which is tentatively titled Thalapathy 69. Even though reports about the project have been doing rounds for some time now, the makers were remaining tight-lipped about the project, so far. However, director H Vinoth confirmed his collaboration with Vijay for Thalapathy 69, at a recent event.
The hitmaker, who recently attended the Magudam Film Awards event in Chennai, finally opened up about his next project. Interestingly, H Vinoth confirmed that he is indeed teaming with Thalapathy Vijay, for the actor’s 69th film which is expected to go on floors very soon. The Thunivu director’s announcement has left the Vijay fans, who have been eagerly waiting for an official word on the Tamil superstar’s next outing for a very long time.
As per the reports, H Vinoth also revealed that Thalapathy 69 is not a political thriller, as the grapevine suggested earlier. According to the celebrated filmmaker, his first collaboration with Vijay is for an out-and-out commercial entertainer. Interestingly, when the filmmaker was asked about the biggest difference between Ajith and Vijay, he stated that the Valimai actor is an abstract thinker. According to Vinoth, the Leo acto has a simple thought process.
Thalapathy 69 is reportedly set to start rolling in October 2024. Mohanlal, the legendary Malayalam superstar is reportedly roped in to play a pivotal role in the untitled film, which might feature Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Premalu actress Mamitha Baiju, as the female leads. Anirudh Ravichander is composing the songs and the original score. Sathyan Sooryan is the director of photography. The untitled Vijay-starrer is bankrolled by KVN Productions.
