Thala
Ajith
aka
Ajith
Kumar,
one
of
the
most
celebrated
actors
of
the
Tamil
film
industry,
is
all
set
to
don
khaki
once
again
on
the
silver
screen.
As
reported
earlier,
Thala
Ajith
is
appearing
as
a
cop
once
again
in
the
upcoming
action-thriller
Valimai.
Recently,
it
was
reported
that
director
H
Vinoth
had
dropped
a
big
hint
about
Valimai.
A
tweet
that
is
supposed
to
be
made
by
director
Vinoth
had
circulated
on
social
media,
in
which
he
has
compared
Valimai
with
Mankatha,
Ajith's
2011-released
blockbuster
movie.
In
the
post,
it
is
written
'Watching

All
time

#Mankatha
now
on
K
TV
!!#ThalaFans
Get
Ready
For
Next
Mankatha...
It's
Is

However,
the
latest
reports
suggest
that
this
tweet
is
not
made
by
the
Valimai
director
and
the
account
from
which
it
was
posted,
is
not
verified.
According
to
the
sources
close
to
the
project,
the
Valimai-Mankatha
comparison
tweet
was
made
through
a
fake
Twitter
ID
of
director
H
Vinoth.
Mankatha,
that
marked
Thala
Ajith's
first
collaboration
with
director
Venkat
Prabhu,
had
emerged
as
one
of
the
most
loved
films
of
the
actor's
career.
Ajith
appeared
as
Vinayak
Mahadevan,
a
corrupted
police
officer
in
the
movie
that
featured
Arjun
Sarja,
Premgi
Amaran,
Vaibhav
Reddy,
Trisha
Krishnan,
and
so
on
in
pivotal
roles.
Valimai,
on
the
other
hand,
marks
Ajith's
second
collaboration
with
director
H
Vinoth
and
senior
Bollywood
producer
Boney
Kapoor,
after
the
success
of
Nerkonda
Paarvai,
the
2019-released
legal
drama.
The
movie
will
feature
Bollywood
actresses
Yami
Gautham
and
Huma
Qureshi
as
the
female
leads.
Ileana
D'Cruz,
the
popular
actress
is
said
to
be
playing
a
pivotal
role
in
Valimai.
Yuvan
Shankar
Raja,
the
popular
musician
has
been
roped
in
to
compose
the
songs
and
background
score
for
the
project.
The
filming
of
the
project
is
currently
stopped
due
to
the
all
India
lockdown.
