After confirming that Vijay Sethupathi has been brought on-board for Thalapathy 64, the makers have now released an official poster starring their leading lady, Petta actress Malavika Mohanan.
In what is being termed as a casting coup of sorts, two of South Cinema's brilliant minds, director Thalapathy Vijay and actor Vijay Sethupathi will be teaming up for their next much-anticipated movie. Titled Thalapathy 64, the movie is a gangster film where Sethupathi will be seen playing the role of an antagonist for the first time ever. In fact, if reports are to be believed, this role will not only become Vijay's highest-paid remuneration but also make him the highest-paid villain in a Thalapathy movie.
