Thalapathy Vijay 65: Nelson In, Murugadoss Out

Kollywood actor Thalapathi Vijay has a huge fan following in Tamil Nadu. His movies earn hundreds of crores. His fans who are disappointed about the delay in the release of his upcoming movie "Master" owing to Corona, are standing on toes for it to see the light of the day.

There were also rumours that Master will have a direct OTT Release which the makers rubbished and assured fans that the movie will first hit the big screens.

While Master release date is yet to be announced, Vijay has shared without much pomp or fanfare news which has brought smile on the faces of his fans. Earlier, there was an announcement about 65th movie of Vijay under the banner of Sun Pictures. But there was no official confirmation about this.

Now, we have a clear picture about this project which has been revealed officially. Vijay65 will be produced under the "Sun Pictures" banner and it will be helmed by director Nelson Dilip Kumar. The music for this movie will be scored by none other than Anirudh Ravichandar.

Nelson who entered kollywood in the year 2010 had to face a lot of obstacles in the beginning of his career. Later, he directed a movie by name "Kolamaavu Kokila" in the year 2018 in which Nayanthara was the lead actress. This amassed lot of money at the box office.

The director who triumphed in his first attempt has made another movie titled "Doctor" with Shiva Karthikeyan which is on the verge of its release. Now, the director has earned a chance to direct a Vijay movie. Famous director AR Murugadoss who had delivered hit movies like "Katthi" "Thuppakki" and "Sarkar" with Vijay was supposed to direct this movie under the banner Sun pictures as per previous plans. But now, Nelson has replaced his place.
