Vijay Sethupathi’s upcoming flick directed by Pandiraj titled Thalaivan Thalaivi
The makers of director Pandiraj’s next film, featuring actors Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen in the lead have announced the title of the film as Thalaivan Thalaivi.
The title teaser opens with only voices being heard in the background, even as a pan in a restaurant is heated and cooking starts.
A voice over in the beginning of the teaser tells the heroine, “You don’t have to cook daughter-in-law. We will treat you like royalty.”
Then another voiceover tells the heroine, who is addressed as Arasi (Queen),”You don’t have to worry at all Arasi. You can lose any number of people for the sake of my brother.”
Finally Vijay Sethupathi is seen saying, “You have left your parents behind and have come with me, because you like me. Just watch! I am going to look after you like a Queen. It will make your parents wonder why they didn’t look after you this well.”
The next visual has both Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menon mincing the Kothu parotta on the pan.
Nithya Menon asks Vijay Sethupathi, “Is this how you look after a queen?” He replies, “If you don’t like, please leave to your father’s palace.” She then says to her, her home is a palace and the war of words intensifies.
Director Pandiraj, for his part, shared the link of the title announcement teaser saying, “#ThalaivanThalaivii A battlefield with kisses, a rugged love story.”
The film, which has music by Santhosh Narayanan, has cinematography by M Sukumar.
Release date for the movie is yet to be announced.
