It has been more than four years since we saw a Thala-Thalapathy Box office clash. The last time it happened was during 2014 January as Ajith's 'Veeram' and Vijay's 'Jilla' released on the same day.

Now it looks like 2018 will mark yet another clash between these two box office titans if things go as per plan. Vijay's '62nd film directed by A.R.Murugadoss will be launched with a formal pooja today and the shoot is also set to begin today (Jan 19). Murugadoss has tweeted 'Happy Diwali' today which is seen as a clear hint that 'Thalapathy 62' will be hitting the screens for Diwali this year.

Thala Ajith is expected to begin shooting for 'Viswasam' his fourth film with director Siva, any time soon. The film will be produced by Sathya Jyoti Films which bankrolled the actor-director duo's previous outing 'Vivegam'.

The first official announcement of 'Viswaram' carried the information that the makers are planning to release the film for Diwali 2018.

So the Diwali 2018 is going to be a most memorable for fans in the history as it will possibly see a Thala-Thalapathy clash that too when they are at the prime of their superstardom.
