Sun Pictures, best known for bankrolling superstar Rajinikanth’s Enthiran, on Tuesday officially announced their comeback with Vijay’s next, which is tentatively titled Thalapathy 62. The project marks the third time collaboration of Vijay and AR Murugadoss, known for delivering blockbusters such as Thuppakki and Kaththi. Via their Twitter handle, Sun Pictures confirmed their association with the project. Actor Vijay’s fans have been on cloud nine ever since the announcement. The project is expected to be made on a lavish budget.
The genre of the project remains a mystery and it needs to be seen whether it will be another action entertainer along the lines of Murugadoss’s previous outing with Vijay. It is also rumoured that the film is being planned as next year’s Diwali release as Thuppakki and Kaththi both released for the festive occasion and turned out to be highly successful. According to industry grapevine, Keerthy Suresh is under consideration for the role of leading lady.
