Thalapathy 63 is an upcoming film that has Vijay in the lead role, while Nayanthara plays the female lead. It is a sports drama that also has Kathir, Yogi Babu, Daniel Balaji, Reba Monica John, Vivekh, Indhuja and others playing crucial supporting roles.
The film is directed by Atlee, marking his 3rd consecutive collaboration with Vijay, after Theri and Mersal. It is produced by Kalpathi S. Aghoram, Kalpathi S. Ganesh, and Kalpathi S. Suresh under the banner AGS Entertainment.
It is already known that Vijay is playing a dual role in the film - that of a father, and a son. Sources close to us have revealed that the son character played by Vijay is named 'Bigil'. The name contains a mass element to it, and it will surely excite fans.
It was earlier rumoured that Vijay's character's name is Michael. However, our sources have clarified that the character played by Vijay is not named Michael, but it is the name of Kathir's character, who appears in a friend role. An official update from the makers is expected soon.
The film has music by AR Rahman and cinematography by GK Vishnu. The makers are planning to make it a hattrick of Diwali releases for Vijay, after Mersal and Sarkar. Stay tuned for more updates.
