‘Thalaivar 173’ brings together two legendary figures of Indian cinema once again. While Superstar Rajinikanth will headline the film, Kamal Haasan is producing it under the Raaj Kamal Films International banner.
The project has undergone several changes during its development. It was initially associated with director Sundar C before later being linked to ‘Don’ director Cibi Chakravarthi. Following further creative discussions, the makers have now reportedly finalised a new director.
On the occasion of Ashwath Marimuthu’s birthday, the production house released a special video greeting the ‘Dragon’ and ‘Oh My Kadavule’ filmmaker, generating significant excitement among fans.
With music by Anirudh Ravichander, the film is currently slated for a Pongal 2027 theatrical release, although an exact release date has not yet been revealed.
