Thalapathy Vijay's Last Film to Feature Prakash Raj as the Antagonist

This would mark another collaboration between the two, who have previously worked together on hits like Gilli and Pokkiri. The film, directed by H Vinoth, will also feature Simran, Pooja Hegde, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Mohanlal, and Mamitha Baiju, with Bobby Deol potentially joining as another antagonist.

Produced by KVN Productions, Thalapathy 69 will be released in Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi. The film's poster reveals the tagline, 'Torch Bearer of Democracy,' and announces Vijay's collaboration with Rockstar Anirudh for the music. Reports indicate Vijay is set to become the highest-paid Indian actor with a fee of Rs 275 crore for this project. Pre-production is currently underway.

After Thalapathy 69, Vijay plans to focus on his political career with his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam and is advocating for a Left-of-Centre stance, drawing inspiration from leaders like BR Ambedkar, Periyar, and K Kamaraj.
