The hype around Kangana Ranaut's upcoming biopic of former Tamil Nadu CM Jayalalitha has died down a bit in last few months. The film was supposed to release in April and the marketing team was doing best to promote it. However, second wave of the pandemic ruined the plans and film got delayed. Now the makers have zeroed in on a new release date.

According to the latest Instagram posts by Zee Studios and Kangana Ranaut, 'Thalaivi' is set to release theatrically on 10th of September. Sharing a poster of the film, Kangana wrote, "The story of this iconic personality deserves to be witnessed only on the BIG SCREEN! Pave way, for #Thalaivii as she is all set to make a superstar entry into the world of cinema, yet again, a place where she has always belonged! Thalaivii IN CINEMAS near you on 10th September! #ThalaiviiOnTheBigScreen #ThalaiviiInTheatres."

Zee Studios on the other hand wrote, "With a personality queen size, Jayalalithaa's story has always belonged to the big screens! Embark on her inspiring journey from being a cine star to becoming one of the most influential CMs in theatres near you on 10th September."

The film is directed by KV Vijayendra Prasad and also stars Arvind Swami, Madhoo, Prakash Raj, Jisshu Sengupta, Bhagyashree and Poorna in pivotal roles.
