New stills from the upcoming movie Thunivu, which stars Ajith Kumar in the lead role, were released by the makers on Sunday. In one of the stills, Ajith looks cool in a black-leather jacket, while in another, the actor is donning eccentric shades and holding a gun while appearing to be threatening.

He added, “It all began when I narrated a scene to Ajith sir, telling him that I had written it for a small-budget film I was planning to make.” Vinoth said that Ajith felt the scene was terrific and asked him if he could be a part of the film. The director also said that Thunivu is not a heist movie or an action thriller but it is a multi-genre film.
