H Vinoth confirms helming Thalapathy 69, Vijay’s last film before his political entry: ‘200 per cent Thalapathy film’

When asked if this would be a political film considering Vijay’s impending entry into politics, Vinoth said, “This will be a 200 percent Thalapathy film. When I committed this film, he said that the project should appeal to people of all ages and across the political spectrum.” Reiterating that Thalapathy 69 will be a proper commercial film, Vinoth said, “The film wouldn’t be targeting any political leader or a political party. It will be an 100 percent commercial film.” 

Through this project, Vinoth joins the very small list of present-day filmmakers who have directed both Ajith and Vijay. Talking about a facet each about these stars, Vinoth said, “Ajith sir is an abstract thinking individual, and Vijay sir is a simple thinking individual.”
