Kamal
Haasan,
the
veteran
actor
is
all
set
to
don
the
director's
hat
once
again
for
the
upcoming
project
Thalaivan
Irukkindran.
As
reported
earlier,
talented
actor
Vijay
Sethupathi
has
been
roped
in
to
play
a
pivotal
character
in
the
much-awaited
project.
Recently,
the
sources
close
to
the
project
revealed
some
exciting
details
about
Vijay
Sethupathi's
role
in
Thalaivan
Irukkindran.
According
to
the
reports,
the
much-awaited
movie
is
a
spiritual
sequel
to
the
1992-released
Kamal
Haasan
starring
classic,
Thevar
Magan.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
believed,
Vijay
Sethupathi
is
appearing
as
the
son
of
Maya
Thevar,
the
character
played
by
Nassar
in
Thevar
Magan.
However,
the
team
has
not
made
an
official
confirmation
on
the
reports
yet.
The
rumour
mills
are
also
suggesting
that
Vadivelu
and
Revathi,
the
popular
comedian
and
senior
actress
will
reprise
their
respective
characters
from
Thevar
Magan
in
Thalaivan
Irukkindran.
The
project,
which
is
bankrolled
by
the
renowned
banner
Lyca
Productions,
is
expected
to
have
an
official
launch
once
the
lockdown
ends.
AR
Rahman,
the
veteran
musician
has
been
roped
in
to
compose
the
songs
and
background
score
for
the
project.
Earlier,
it
was
reported
that
Kamal
Haasan
will
essay
the
lead
role
in
Thalaivan
Irukkindran,
while
also
handling
the
director's
role.
However,
the
latest
reports
suggest
that
the
senior
actor
is
not
playing
the
lead
role,
but
is
making
a
cameo
appearance
in
the
movie.
Thalaivan
Irukkindran
will
mark
Kamal's
second
collaboration
with
Lyca
Productions.
The
actor
joined
hands
with
Lyca
for
the
first
time,
for
the
highly
anticipated
upcoming
project
Indian
2,
which
is
directed
by
Shankar.
The
big-budget
venture
was
delayed
after
the
unfortunate
accident
that
happened
on
the
sets
in
February
2020.
Later,
it
was
rumoured
that
the
production
banner
is
planning
to
cancel
their
2-film
deal
with
Kamal
Haasan
following
a
fallout
with
the
actor.
However,
Lyca
Productions
rubbished
the
rumours
later.
