A few weeks ago, the social media is abuzz with the news Hero Vishal will be a part of Thalapathy 67 which is said to be linked to LCU (Lokesh Cinematic Universe). The reason for this is Director Lokesh Kanagaraj met Vishal on the sets of Vishal's upcoming film Mark Anthony. News about their meet was kept under wraps but sources close to the project revealed that it is indeed a discussion about a role offered to Vishal in Thalapathy 67. Latest news is Vishal confirmed that he will not be doing the film.
Vishal cited that due to back to back commitments he had to decline the role in Thalapathy 67. His latest film Laththi is slated to release on December 22. Another film Mark Antony is currently on the sets. Thupparivaalan 2 is also under production which is Produced and Directed by Vishal himself. But, the progress of the film is yet to be known. It would have been a good opportunity for Vishal if he accepted the role offered to him in #Thalapathy67 as it is a part of big multiverse which has scope to expand further. And hence his role in the film.
Thalapathy 67 starring Vijay and Trisha is a gangster film where Vijay will be seen in late 40's. The film will start shooting from January in Kashmir. News also doing rounds that Bollywood veteran Hero Sanjay Dutt will be seen as the antagonist in the film.
