Thalapathy 65: Shine Tom Chacko also part of Vijay’s next

Malayalam actor Shine Tom Chacko is set to make his Tamil debut with Thalapathy Vijay’s upcoming film directed by Nelson Dilipkumar. Tentatively titled as Thalapathy ’65’, the film is produced by Sun Pictures. Over the last few years, Shine has been showing remarkable growth as an acto. Some of his recent films like ‘Ishq’, ‘Unda’ and ‘Love’ had grabbed the attention of non-Malayali cinephiles. This must have paved way for his Tamil entry. Shine is the second Malayali actor to be part of ‘Thalapathy 65’. Aparna Das, noted for her roles in ‘Njan Prakashan’ and ‘Manoharam’, is also playing an important role in the film.

‘Thalapathy 65’ has Pooja Hegde of ‘Ala Vaikunthapuramuloo’ fame as the female lead. It is touted to be a big-budget action thriller in which Vijay plays a con-agent. Major portions of the film has been planned to be shot abroad. On the technical front, the film has Anirudh Ravichander as the music director and cinematography by Manoj Paramahamsa. Though its shoot had begun recently in Georgia, the makers had to stop works and return back home due to the second wave of pandemic.
