Thalapathy Vijay has completed more than sixty percent of his portions for his upcoming film 'Master' directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj and costarring Vijay Sethupathi, Malavika Mohanan, Andrea Jeremiah, Arjun Das, Shantanu Bhagyaraj and many more popular stars. Anirudh is scoring the music and the release is expected to be on April 9th ahead of the Tamil New Year and Summer holidays.

In the meantime, it is said that Vijay is simultaneously firming up his next tentatively titled 'Thalapathy 65' and has reportedly listened to scripts from Arunraja Kamaraj, Perarasu, Lokesh Kanagaraj again and a few other established directors as well. Now the latest news is that Vijay has also met young director Karthik Thangavel and was pretty much impressed by the script he has narrated and may give him the nod. Karthik Thangavel hit gold with his debut movie 'Adanga Maru' starring Jayam Ravi and Raashi Khanna that released in 2019.

Sources further add that Karthik Thangavel has already received the advance from Sun Pictures for a project and it may very well be for 'Thalapathy 65'. Other sources close to Vijay have informed us that only when Vijay decides to make it official the true picture would emerge and though talks are on nothing is concrete as yet.
