Thala 58: After Mankatha and Arrambam, Yuvan Shankar Raja to compose for Ajith’s next!
It is already known that Thala Ajith’s next film is also with director Siva, with whom he has already worked in three films. Their last outing Vivegam, released in August this year, had high expectations but turned out to be a disappointment. Following the ambitious spy-thriller, the duo’s next is touted to be a commercial mass flick on the lines of their earlier films, Veeram and Vedhalam
As per latest reports, Yuvan Shankar Raja will be handling the music department in this upcoming movie. Yuvan is unarguably the favourite composer of Thala fans as he has given a number of hit songs and some terrific background score for the star. His works in Ajith starrers like Billa, Mankatha and Arrambam were much talked about. So when Yuvan join hands with Ajith once again, expectations among the fans are on the higher side.
Reportedly, Siva’s upcoming film with Ajith is being planned on a tight budget, unlike Vivegam which happened to be Ajith’s most expensive film till date. This yet-to-be-titled movie is expected to start rolling by January, next year. Sathya Jyothi Films, the makers of Vivegam are in talks for the production but an official announcement is yet to be made.
Interestingly, Thala 58 is eyeing a Diwali 2018 release. Vijay- AR Murugadoss, Suriya-Selvaraghavan film and superstar Rajinikanth’s Kaala are also being planned for the festive season. The makers will definitely be aware of the impact that such a big clash will have on their box office earnings. So, a reschedule of release dates is certainly on cards.
