Director Lokesh Kanagaraj after delivering the monster hit 'Vikram' starring Kamal Haasan has been super busy with the final scripting and location hunting for his next 'Thalapathy 67' starring Thalapathy Vijay in the lead role.

According to reliable sources the shooting of the much expected project is expected to begin in the first week of December and currently the team is involved in finalising the cast. It is said that Sanjay Dutt is confirmed as the main villain in the film while there are six other antagonists for whom such names as Prithviraj Sukumaran, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Action King Arjun, Manzoor Ali Khan, Gautham Vasudev Menon and Mysskin are in talks.

Now the buzz is that Lokesh Kanagaraj has shortlisted actress Mynaa Nandhini and Raju Jeyamohan for two important characters in 'Thalapathy 67. Mynaa who already worked with the director in 'Vikram' in a small role is currently a contestant in 'Bigg Boss Tamil 6'. Similarly Raju Jeyamohan was the winner of 'Bigg Boss 5'. Looks like more Lokesh is going to pack the film with several stars much like his previous films. Stay tuned for more.
