According
to
sources
close
to
the
project,
Thala
57
will
be
officially
launched
with
the
traditional
pooja
(a
religious
ceremony)
on
May
1st,
owing
to
Ajith's
birthday.
Usually,
any
event
pertaining
to
a
movie
that
stars
Ajith
will
be
an
insipid
affair,
unlike
events
that
has
other
stars
playing
the
lead.
In
fact,
if
we
are
talking
about
an
Ajith
movie,
even
important
events
like
an
audio
launch
function
would
be
held
sans
publicity,
thanks
to
the
Vedalam
star's
ideology,
which
is
not
to
spend
money
unnecessarily
on
such
events.
Though
this
works
well
for
a
producer,
fans
and
movie
buffs
are
usually
disappointed
prior
to
the
film's
release
as
they
do
not
get
to
see
the
glitz
and
glamour
involved
in
such
gatherings
for
their
favourite
actor's
flicks.
But,
all
that
might
change
in
the
forthcoming
movie
Thala
57.
Bankrolled
by
Sathyajyothi
Films,
the
makers
of
the
movie
have
reportedly
planned
a
grand
event
while
launching
the
project
on
May
1st.
What
more,
it
is
said
that
they
have
also
planned
a
surprise
birthday
party
for
the
star
actor
and
that
a
huge
set
is
currently
being
erected
at
Binny
Mills
in
Chennai,
meant
for
the
event.
All
that
said
and
done,
the
only
question
now
remains
is,
will
Ajith
turn
up
for
the
event?
Given
the
Yennai
Arindhaal
actor's
reputation
of
not
attending
any
social
gatherings,
it
cannot
be
said
with
certainty
that
he
will
show
up
for
the
film's
launch,
which
deliberately
falls
on
his
45th
birthday.
To
be
directed
by
Siva,
who
had
earlier
helmed
Ajith's
Veeram
and
Vedalam,
Thala
57
will
have
its
music
composed
by
Anirudh.
While
there
is
no
official
confirmation
as
yet
regarding
the
film's
cast
and
crew,
it
is
widely
speculated
that
the
movie
will
have
two
leading
ladies
including
Hindi
actress
Kriti
Sanon.
Stay
tuned
for
further
updates.
