Directors Magizh Thirumeni, Lokesh Kanagaraj and Vetri Maaran were earlier rumoured to helm Thalapathy 65, but we had denied those rumours after clarifying with our sources. One more director has now featured in the list of rumoured directors and it is none other than A.R.Murugadoss. Yes, it was speculated on social media that Thalapathy 65 will be directed by Murugadoss, thereby marking his fourth time collaboration with Vijay after Thuppakki, Kaththi and Sarkar.

However, when we checked with our sources, they denied the news and stated that the rumour is false. Vijay hasn’t taken a call on his next film’s director yet and he is completely focussed on the current film with Lokesh Kanagaraj. It looks like we will have to wait for a few more months to know who is going to direct Thalapathy 65! Rumours online also suggest that Sun Pictures is most likely to bankroll this mega biggie.
