Vinnai Thaandi Varuvaaya and Nanban cameraman Manoj Paramahamsa signed for Thalapathy 65

Vijay’s next film will be directed by Nelson Dilipkumar of ‘Kolamavku Kokila’ fame. Sun Pictures is producing this biggie, which is tentatively titled as ‘Thalapathy 65’. Pre-production works are currently underway with the makers finalizing the cast and crew. It has been confirmed that the film will have cinematography by Manoj Paramahamsa. He is best known for his work in films like ‘Eeram’, ‘Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa’ and ‘Enai Noki Paayum Thotta’. He has previously worked with Vijay in ‘Nanban’, the Tamil remake of ‘3 Idiots’.

‘Thalapathy 65’ already has high expectations. Director Nelson’s debut film ‘Kolamavku Kokila’ was a commercial success and his soon-to-be released film ‘Doctor’ with Sivakarthikeyan also has a positive talk in the industry. Anirudh who composed music for both his films has been retained for ‘Thalapathy 65’ as well. It is reported that the film’s shoot will begin in April. The makers are planning it as a grand Diwali release in November.
