We hear that that
Lokesh will wrap Arun's film with Vasanth Ravi before starting production on
his next directorial venture, Kaithi 2, starring Karthi.
Kaithi 2, Only after that is Lokesh next
project with Rajini- Kamal project, if
everything falls in place . . Kaithi is delayed and not for the Rajini- Kamal
project but Lokesh after negative feedback post Coolie is out, he feels that
the expectations from him are higher and viewers are expecting a bigger one
from the Kaithi sequel . Post Coolie, Lokesh has to deliver with Kaithi sequel.
LK07:
Kaithi 2
The fifth
installment of the LCU, after BENZ. The film is
co-produced by KVN Productions and and Dream Warrior Pictures.
The film
revolves around the ego clash between Dilli (Karthi) and Rolex (Suriya), which
is narrated in a non-linear screenplay. Kamal Haasan also plays a role in the
film, with Vijay playing a cameo. This film is the one that begins the present
plot of the universe.
Shoot begins
from December 2025, and will be shot on
a 200–250 crore budget. Will continue until the end of the year. They will be
taking loads of time with post-production and fine tuning, so the film will
only be releasing late 2027.
As elections
are fast approaching, Red Giant would not commit any huge investment till May
next year. RKFI of Kamal is all set to go ahead with Anbu Arivu directorial.
Despite bad word of mouth, Coolie collecting so much shows his good will,
Rajini post Coolie has shown as a weak draw in Tamil Nadu. Indian 2 figures
does not help Kamal either. Coolie has shown that Rajini’s draw in Tamil Nadu
is not big as Vijay.
Primarily,
Rajini- Kamal film has to collect from Tamil Nadu and after paying both heroes
the market price and production costs, recovery at box office is near
impossible task. Only if both heroes join as partners, can the Rajini- Kamal
film take off. The project can take off when Jailer 2 and Anbu Arivu projects
are blockbusters and Kaithi 2 brings back Lokesh.
Actor Ashok Selvan, who has been playing different roles in every film, will be playing a different role in this film as well. Actress Nimisha Sajayan will be playing his opposite number.
The highly anticipated film “Happy Endings, Once More” produced by Million Dollar Studios has reached its final stages. The shooting of this new film is scheduled to begin today in Chennai and be completed in a single phase.
A commercial film that will appeal to all audiences, the film is directed by debutant director Manikandan Anandan . Music composer Thibu Ninan Thomas is composing the music. Pushpa Raj Santhosh is handling the cinematography. Bharath Vikraman is handling the editing.
