After Leo’s success, Lokesh Kanagaraj is going to direct Thalaivar 171 starring Superstar Rajnikanth. The year 2023 has been a standout one for Rajinikanth, who made a comeback with the success of his recent film ‘Jailer.’ The news of his collaboration with director Lokesh Kanagaraj for ‘Thalaivar 171’ has sparked considerable excitement.

Thalaivar 171 Announcement

The film was announced by Sun Pictures on the 11th of September, 2023 before the one-month release of Thalapathy Vijay Leo. This clarifies how Lokesh Kanagaraj is well-prepared for their work. His vision is always clear about his upcoming projects. Fans are eagerly waiting for the Kaithi 2. In a recent interview, Loki said after Thalaivar 171 he will make Kaithi 2. But to the point, this Thalaivar movie will be a mass crime-thriller movie like Leo. According to fan theories, this movie will also be part of the Lokesh Cinematic Universe. This theory is applicable due to seeing the movie announcement poster, in that poster we saw blood like Loki’s previous films.

Thalaivar 171 LCU

LCU means Lokesh Cinematic Universe that is created by Lokesh Kangaraj after the Vikram movie. The first movie of the universe came in 2019 with actor Karthi that is Kaithi. After that Lokesh Kanagaraj came with a movie Master with Thalapathy Vijay but it is not a part of LCU, it is a standalone movie. In 2022, Loki came with Vikram with Kamal Hassan which is the part of Universe. At the end of the movie a new character is introduced, who is the main villain of the whole LCU, Rolex.

After the success of Vikram, Loki came with Leo this year in this month with Thalapathy Vijay which became a huge success. Leo is also part of LCU. Now we can hope that Loki came with a movie that is connected to LCU. So, we can hope Thalaivar 171 will be in LCU.

This year is good for Rajinikanth

Produced by Sun Pictures, the same production house behind ‘Jailer,’ the film is already generating significant buzz. Earlier this year, following the blockbuster success of ‘Jailer,’ Rajinikanth received a BMW X7 and a profit-sharing check from Kalanithi Maran, the owner of Sun Pictures, solidifying their strong relationship.
