Director Atlee, who will be directing actor Vijay in a film next for Thenandal Studio Limited, has announced the release date for the film’s first look.
Tweeting from his social media account, Atlee said the film’s first look will be released on 22 June, and that its audio launch will be held in August. The film itself will be released in October this year. The film, which is yet to be titled, is being referred to as Thalapathy61, for the time being.
Expectations have risen for this film as Theri, the last film that Atlee and Vijay worked on together, was a blockbuster. The addition of AR Rahman, who will be composing the music for the film, has added to the excitement around it.
This apart, the film will feature three top heroines. Kajal Aggarwal, Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Nithya Menon have been signed to play the heroines in the film, while SJ Suryah plays the villain.
It may also be recalled that Jyothika had initially agreed to be a part of this film, but had later chosen to opt out of it at the last minute.
