Filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj made heads turn in his debut venture, the action thriller, Maanagaram, which went on to become one of the most lauded films of 2017. The director has been in the spotlight of late after it was revealed that he is going to direct actor Vijay next in the tentatively titled, Thalapathy 64. Ever since the revelation, each of his statements on his Twitter page is being looked up keenly by fans with the director now sharing his happiness over the Indian Cricket Team’s victory over the Pakistan Cricket Team in the 2019 World Cup match that took place yesterday at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground in Greater Manchester, England. The Indian team’s win is the seventh continuous victory in a World Cup against Pakistan and was yet again a high stakes clash, which saw Team India set a target of 337 for Pakistan to chase, who eventually fell short by 89 runs and scored only 212 for the loss of 6 wickets after the target was revised to 302 to be scored in 40 overs under the Duckworth–Lewis–Stern method (DLS).

As for Lokesh Kanagaraj’s next film, Kaithi, is carrying tremendous expectations with Karthi in the lead role after a high-octane and action-packed thrilling teaser was released a while back. Produced under the Dream Warrior Pictures banner, there are reportedly plans to get the film out in theatres sometime next month with an official statement expected to be made in the days ahead.
There is plenty of excitement for Kaithi and that has been visible among Vijay fans as well after news broke out that Lokesh Kanagaraj is going to direct Thalapathy 64. Touted to be a gangster flick, the upcoming film will include Anirudh Ravichander scoring the music, cinematography being handled by Sathyan Sooryan and editing by Philomin Raj in light of a planned April or May 2020 release.
