Sun Pictures, the production company behind Rajnikanth’s film “Jailer,” has no intention of parting ways with the superstar anytime soon. In a surprising turn of events, they have officially revealed that #Thailavar171 will be helmed by none other than Lokesh Kanagaraj, who is currently awaiting the release of Thalapathy Vijay’s “Leo.”
This announcement comes as a significant shock to many, as it was widely speculated that Lokesh might collaborate with actors like Prabhas or Ram Charan for his next project, while Atlee was expected to direct Rajnikanth’s next film. However, in an unexpected twist, the Rajni-Lokesh project has been unveiled.
Meanwhile, Lokesh and Anirudh, who have previously delivered blockbuster hits like “Master” and “Vikram,” are once again teaming up to work on Rajnikanth’s project, even as fans eagerly await the release of “Leo.”
