Thalapathy
67
is
probably
the
first
film
to
have
updates
of
such
hype
coming
out
before
the
official
announcement
for
the
project
is
made.
On
one
hand,
the
film
has
not
been
officially
announced
by
anyone
who
is
part
of
the
cast
and
crew.
On
the
other
hand,
we
hear
rumours
about
its
non-theatrical
business,
casting,
and
the
plot.
The
casting
updates
have
been
way
too
interesting
for
this
film.
So
far,
we
have
Trisha,
Samantha,
and
Gautham
Menon
as
the
cast,
as
per
unofficial
sources.
Now,
a
partly
official
update
has
come
out
that
Sanjay
Dutt
is
on-board
this
project.
This
particular
news
has
been
shared
by
a
number
of
industry
trackers
through
their
official
Twitter
handles.
One
of
them
even
mentioned
that
Sanjay
Dutt
has
been
offered
a
salary
of
about
Rs
10
Crore
for
this
role.
Apparently,
Samantha
plays
a
corrupt
cop,
Trisha
and
Vijay
are
in
the
same
film
together
after
so
long,
and
Gautham
Menon
is
going
to
act
in
a
Vijay
film.
These
are
quite
crazy
details
on
their
own.
And
to
think
that
all
of
these
will
happen,
and
Sanjay
Dutt
will
join
them,
is
just
too
much
to
process
honestly.
If
this
is
not
enough,
there
is
also
a
talk
that
Prithviraj
Sukumaran
is
being
approached
for
a
role
in
Thalapathy
67.
The
explanation
for
the
number
of
stars
being
cast
has
been
given
as
follows:
Thalapathy
67
has
a
script
that
demands
these
many
antagonists.
The
talk
is
that
Vijay
would
be
playing
a
gangster,
with
a
stylish
salt
and
pepper
look.
While
all
of
this
is
exciting,
it
also
makes
you
wonder
how
such
a
huge
cast
would
be
accommodated
in
the
film,
and
if
anyone
from
the
Lokesh
Cinematic
Universe
would
be
part
of
Thalapathy
67.
Lokesh
is
definitely
cooking
up
something
spicy
and
we
can't
wait
for
time
to
pass
so
that
we
could
finally
see
more
of
this
project.
