It is expected that the upcoming thriller is expected to roll out once COVID-19 pandemic subsides and the all India lockdown comes to an end.
Santhosh Sivan, the renowned cinematographer-filmmaker who cranked the camera for the Thuppakki, is all set to join the crew of Thalapathy 65.

Recently, Santhosh shared some unseen stills from Thuppakki on his official Instagram page. The netizens are considering this as the cinematographer’s hint about joining the Vijay-AR Murugadoss next project.
According to the reports, the makers are planning to rope in S Thaman, the current musical sensation of the Telugu film industry, to compose the songs and background score for the project.
If the reports are to be true, S Thaman will replace Harris Jayaraj, who composed songs for the first installment of the series, as the music director of Thalapathy 65.
Kajal Aggarwal, the actress who appeared as the female lead in Thuppakki, has been roped in to reprise her character Nisha in Thuppakki 2 as well. But the sources suggest that the team is also planning to rope in another popular actress as the new addition to the lead cast. If the reports are to be true, popular actress Pooja Hegde is in talks for the role.
Thalapathy 65 will mark the fourth collaboration of Vijay and director AR Murugadoss, after the great success of Thuppakki, Kaththi, and Sarkar.
Bollywood sources said, actor Vijay has allowed a 120-days long call sheet for the project, which is expected to start rolling in November 2020.
The film will be produced by the leading entertainment group Sun Pictures.
