Vijay,
the
Thalapathy

Tamil

all
set
to
team
up
with
Kaithi
fame
Lokesh
Kanagaraj
for
the
upcoming
project
which
has
been
titled
as
Master.
The
official
second
look
poster
of
Master,
which
was
released
recently
is
now
taking
social
media
by
storm.
The
highly
promising
second

a
different
look.
According

the
sources

Master

a
different
film

a
never-seen-before
character.
Expectations
are
definitely
riding
high
on
the
Lokesh

directorial

poster,
as
it
hints
that
Master
has
something
very
big
in
store
for
both
the
cine-goers
and
Vijay

As
reported
earlier,
Master
has
already
emerged
as
a
profitable
venture
for
its
makers,
with
the
massive
pre-release
business.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
Vijay
starrer
has
crossed
the
200-Crore
mark
with
its
pre-release
business,
which
includes
the
satellite,
digital
streaming,
and
audio
rights.
If
things
fall
in
place,
the
shooting
of
the
action
thriller
will
be
wrapped
up
around
February
2020.
According
