Thalapathy Vijay is set to team up with director H Vinoth for his 69th film in Tamil cinema, marking his final outing as an actor before taking a break from films. The movie, tentatively titled Thalapathy 69, has undergone changes in production with Jagadish Palanisamy's The Route banner taking over, contrary to initial reports of KVN Productions bankrolling the film.
H Vinoth confirmed the collaboration with Thalapathy Vijay at the Magudam Film Awards event, revealing that the film is not a political thriller but a 100% Vijay film catering to all age groups. Samantha Ruth Prabhu is expected to star as the female lead, with Mohanlal in talks for a pivotal role and Mamitha Baiju joining the cast.
Anirudh Ravichander will compose the music, with Sathyan Sooryan handling the cinematography. The film is expected to start rolling in October 2024, with The Route banner producing, although an official announcement is yet to be made.
Thalapathy Vijay's final film before his break is highly anticipated, and with H Vinoth's direction and a talented cast, expectations are high for this upcoming Tamil cinema release. Jagadeesh is a close associate of Vijay and also his manager. This is indeed a great achievement for Jagadeesh who is making a film with his hero.
