Happy Morning everyone. #Thalapathy68,” wrote Archana on X. “thanks for saving our mental peace,” commented a fan while another wrote, “We Are Waiting & Thanks For Giving Clarification Regarding #Thalapathy68 Title.” Buzz is that the title will be revealed on New Year’s.
A remake?
While Archana did not clarify further, there’s also speculation that the film is inspired by Hollywood film Looper. Touted to be a time travel based film, Vijay is rumoured to play a double role, including scenes where he plays a 19-year-old. What’s more, back in September, the actor went to Los Angeles to get a 3D scan of his body for the film. The film’s team is currently shooting in Chennai, with plans to shoot in Thailand and Turkey next year.
