Vettaiyyan Story Revealed: Rajinikanth To Play A Cop Again; Fights Against Fake Encounters? Here's A Scoop

Rajinikanth, the superstar of the Tamil film industry, is currently working on the movie 'Vettaiyyan,' directed by T.S. Gnanavel. This film is eagerly awaited by fans, as is 'Thalaivar 171,' another project where Rajinikanth will collaborate with the maverick filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj, a highly respected director in Kollywood. This partnership is particularly exciting because it's their first project together. The excitement was heightened when the poster for 'Thalaivar 171' was released, with an official announcement about the title reveal date. The title of the movie will be revealed on April 22.

Rajinikanth's previous film, 'Jailer,' was a massive success, making his involvement in 'Vettaiyyan' and 'Thalaivar 171' even more anticipated. 'Vettaiyyan,' produced by Lyca Productions, gained attention after T.S. Gnanavel's unprecedented success with 'Jai Bhim.' The movie boasts a stellar cast including Amitabh Bachchan, Fahadh Faasil, and Manju Warrier among others. Anirudh Ravichander is composing the music, possibly recreating the magic once again after Jailer. The title teaser has already been well-received, and the final stages of shooting are underway.

The storyline of 'Vettaiyyan' revolves around the theme of fake encounters, with Rajinikanth's character fighting against such incidents from within the police system. The title teaser hints at the commercial elements expected in a Rajinikanth's film, promising action and mass appeal. Meanwhile, 'Thalaiver 171' is under the direction of Lokesh Kanagaraj, who is fully engaged in the pre-production to ensure its success. Shooting for this film is set to begin in June this year.

Following the success of 'Jailer,' the Sun Pictures banner has taken up the production of 'Thalaivar 171.' There are industry whispers that Gnanavel has advised Lokesh to spare no expense in making a film that will capture attention nationwide. The release of its poster has sparked widespread fan speculation on social media about the movie's plot. Some fans speculate it could involve time travel or be a prequel to the Rolex character from a previous film. However, only Lokesh Kanagaraj knows the true story of his much anticipated film.
