Ilayathalapathy VijayÂs action thriller, ÂThupaki has now been confirmed as a Diwali release. Kalaipuli S Thanu says, ÂPadam kandippa Diwali releaseÂ
 While the talkie portions have been wrapped three songs are remaining to be shot.
Audio is touted to release after August 15.
Starring Vijay and Kajal Aggarwal in the lead roles, the film by AR Murugadoss has music by Harris Jayaraj. Comic relief is by Sathyan and cinematography by ace Santosh Sivan.
Vijay reportedly plays a cop in this action packed thriller that has few scenes shot in live locations in Mumbai using hidden cameras.
Last year, VijayÂs Velayudham saw a massive opening and is one of his biggest hits so far. WeÂll have to wait to see if VijayÂs this year Diwali release, which is a complete contrast to Velayudham, considering his suave avatar in Thupaki, will surpass the earlier oneÂs records or not.
