The

which

reopen.
In
a
recent
interview,
Lokesh
slammed
the
rumours
which
suggested

Recently,
it
was
rumoured
that

Kaithi.
The
filmmaker
rubbished
the
reports
and
suggest
that
he
is
not
directing
the
Hindi
remake
of
Kaithi,
which
is
expected
to
star
Ajay
Devgn
in
the
lead
role.
Lokesh
is
planning
to
solely
concentrate
on
Tamil
cinema
for
now.
However,
the
young
director
confirmed
that
a
sequel
is
on

for
Kaithi,
and
he
might
reunite
with

the
Tamil
cinema
audiences
and
fans
of
Karthi,
who
are
eagerly
waiting
for
the
sequel
of
the
blockbuster
action
thriller.
An
official
announcement
on
the
project
is
expected
to
be
made,
once
things
are
finalised
between
the
director
and
lead
actor.
Coming
back
to
Master,
the
highly
anticipated
action
thriller
will
mark
Lokesh
Kanagaraj's
first
collaboration
with
both

actor
Vijay
Sethupathi.
The
movie,
which
features
Vijay
in
the
titular
role,
will
have
Sethupathi
playing
the
lead
antagonist.
Master,
which
was
originally
supposed
to
hit
the
theaters
in
April
2020,
is
now
pushed
indefinitely
due
to
the
coronavirus
threat.
Interestingly,
Lokesh
Kanagaraj
is
also
reportedly
roped
in
to
helm
the
highly
anticipated
upcoming
Rajinikanth
starrer,
which
will
be
produced
by
Kamal
Haasan.
The

suggest
that
both
the
superstar
and
ulaganayakan
are
highly
impressed
with
the

up
with
him
for
a
project.
