Master,
the
Thalapathy
Vijay
starrer,
is
unarguably
the
most-awaited
upcoming
projects
of
the
Tamil
film
industry.
The
action
thriller,
which
was
originally
slated
to
hit
the
theaters
in
April
2020,
has
been
postponed
indefinitely
due
to
novel
coronavirus
pandemic.
But
recently,
the
reports
have
been
suggesting
that
Master
will
hit
the
theaters
for
Deepavali
2020.
However,
the
sources
close
to
the
Vijay
starrer
are
now
suggesting
that
the
release
is
postponed
once
again.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
true,
the
Lokesh
Kanagaraj
directorial
will
now
only
hit
the
screens
by
the
next
year.
The
sources
suggest
that
the
makers
have
decided
to
postpone
Master
to
2021,
and
the
highly
anticipated
project
will
mostly
hit
the
screens
as
a
Pongal
2021
release.
Reportedly,
the
team
decided
to
postpone
the
release
as
it
is
impossible
for
the
world
to
come
back
to
normalcy
in
immediate
future,
as
the
COVID_19
pandemic
is
still
not
under
control.
In
that
case,
the
theaters
will
mostly
remain
shut
by
the
end
of
2020.
So
there
are
no
alternatives
other
than
postponing
the
release
of
Master
to
next
year.
Master,
which
marks
Vijay's
first
collaboration
with
the
talented
filmmaker
Lokesh
Kanagaraj,
is
said
to
be
an
out
and
out
action
thriller
that
revolves
around
a
popular
college
in
the
city.
The
Thalapathy
is
said
to
be
playing
the
character
John
Durairaj,
the
Dean
of
the
college,
in
the
movie
which
features
Vijay
Sethupathi
as
the
lead
antagonist.
The
Makkal
Selvan
will
essay
the
role
of
Bhavani,
a
local
goon
in
Master,
which
features
his
first
on-screen
collaboration
with
Thalapathy
Vijay.
Petta
fame
actress
Malavika
Mohanan
appears
as
the
female
lead
in
the
Lokesh
Kanagaraj
directorial.
Anirudh
Ravichhander
has
composed
the
music
for
the
movie,
which
is
produced
by
XB
Creations.
