Actor Vijay Sethupathi graced the silver screens earlier this year in the romantic crime comedy film Ace directed by Arumuga Kumar with Kannada actress Rukmini Vasanth in the female lead role. The Maharaja star is now eagerly anticipating the release of his next movie titled Thalaivan Thalaivii. Story teller Pandiraj has penned and crafted the entertainer.
Malayalam actress Nithya Menen, who has already collaborated with actor Vijay Sethupathi in the Malayalam movie 19(1)(a), has played the part of Vijay Sethupathi’s wife in the movie. The flick has been shot in multiple regions of Tiruchendur, Thoothukudi, Madurai, and Tiruchirapalli. The makers have already publicized that the drama will be released in theaters worldwide on 25th of July.
The production house has been promoting the film by dropping the title teaser and singles from the drama on social media. They have now launched the trailer of the entertainer. Taking to his official X profile, story teller Venkat Prabhu shared the trailer of Thalaivan Thalaivii and worded, “Sure it’s gonna be a fun family riot at the theatres from this 25th!! I loved the trailer! Best Wishes to Thalaivan Thalaivii Vijay Sethupathi, Nithya Menen. Pinniteenga Pandiraj saar!! Best wishes Santhosh Narayanan, Sathya Jyothi Films, and the entire team.” Here is the post made by the director.
The two and a half minute trailer of Thalaivan Thalaivii opens to actor Vijay Sethupathi telling Nithya Menen, “You have come with me without reflecting how your life would be if you come with me. I am going to look after you in a way that will make you whine that even your parents did not take care of you the way I do.” The shot cuts to Nithya Menen saying in a village council, “Separate us both.”
Subsequently, we see how they get married. In a scene we witness, actor Vijay Sethupathi complaining, “I do not know why we fight or how it begins. But we fight. Everything will be fine, suddenly we will be fighting.” The trailer ends with a quip where Vijay Sethupathi tries to win over Nithya Menen with an emotive act. She categorically says, “I can see you are acting.”
Beside Vijay Sethupathi, and Nithya Menen, the star cast of Thalaivan Thalaivii also has actors Roshini Haripriyan, Yogi Babu, Kaali Venkat, Chemban Vinod Jose, Myna Nandhini, Saravanan, Deepa Shankar, Kalki Raja, Janaki Suresh, Vinod Sagar, Aruldoss, Sendrayan, R K Suresh, and Muthukumar portraying various supporting roles. Music composer Santhosh Narayanan has scored music for the drama. Already two songs ‘Pottala Muttaye’ in the voice of Santhosh Narayanan & Sublahshini, and ‘Aagasa Veeran’ sung by Pradeep Kumar & Dhee, are out from the album.
Cinematographer M Sukumar has handled camera gears for the flick. Editor Pradeep E Ragav has been signed in to trim the movie. Art director K Veerasamar has designed the background for the project. Stunt director Kalai Kingson has fashioned action moves for the entertainer. Thalaivan Thalaivii is produced by Arjun Thyagarajan and Sendhil Thyagarajan under the production label Sathya Jyothi Films in affiliation with Sai Siddharth and G Saravanan.
