All the rumours about Sanjay Dutt being part of Vijay’s upcoming film, Thalapathy 67, have turned out to be true. Severn Screen Studio, the makers of the gangster film, took to Twitter to confirm that the Bollywood star is officially a part of the Vijay-starrer. The tweet read, “We feel esteemed to welcome @duttsanjay sir to Tamil Cinema and we are happy to announce that he is a part of #Thalapathy67 (sic).”

Along with the tweet, a poster of Sanjay Dutt was also unveiled. Sanjay said in a statement, “When I heard the one liner of Thalapathy 67, I knew in that exact moment I had to be part of the film and I am thrilled to start this journey.”

The Bollywood actor made his Kannada debut last year with Yash’s KGF: Chapter 2, and Thalapathy 67 marks his foray into Tamil cinema.

The makers have also confirmed that Priya Anand, who is known for the film Ethir Neechal, is also part of the movie. She said, “Thrilled to be part of Thalapathy 67. Looking forward to working with such an incredible cast and crew.”

Choreographer Sandy, who has also acted in the film 3:33, will be seen in Thalapathy 67. Talking about being a part of the Vijay film, Sandy said, “This is a very special feeling and very new to see myself as an actor in the most prestigious project Thalapathy 67 directed by our dear Lokesh Kanagaraj. Words can’t express how excited I am to be sharing screen space with our one and only Thalapathy Vijay sir.” Sandy was recently praised for his performance in the promo of Varisu’s “Thee Thalapathy”.

As we earlier reported, director Mysskin, who has established himself as a commendable actor with films like Onaayum Aatukuttyum and Super Deluxe, is also part of Thalapthy 67. Talking about the project, the actor-filmmaker said, “21 years ago I worked as an assistant director for Vijay’s film; one thing that has changed in all those years is the bond we share…I am eagerly waiting to see you all in theatres with Thalapathy 67.”

The film will also star Mathew Thomas, who rose to fame with his debut movie Kumbalangi Nights. It will mark his debut in Tamil. The actor said that he couldn’t have asked for a better debut in Kollywood.

Another addition to the cast is Mansoor Ali Khan. Lokesh has said that he has been a fan of the actor and conceived Kaithi with him in the lead role. He also paid a tribute to Mansoor in Vikram by showing the song “Chakku Chakku Vathi Kuchi” from his 1995 film Asuran, which has become a hit among the modern audience.

Late Tuesday, the makers also announced that filmmaker Gautham Vasudev Menon and actor Arjun Sarja will be a part of Thalapathy 67.

Meanwhile, the crew of the film along with Vijay and Lokesh Kanagaraj has jetted off to Kashmir for a shoot. According to the passenger list, which is making the rounds on social media, Trisha has also gone with the crew, confirming her presence in the movie.

Thalapathy 67 is the second collaboration of Vijay and Lokesh after Master, which turned out to be a blockbuster. Anirudh Ravichander, who composed songs for Master, is again teaming up with Vijay in Thalapathy 67.
