"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," Dutt, 63, said in a statement. The Munna Bhai actor made his debut in Kannada cinema with last year's Yash-starrer KGF: Chapter 2.
Anirudh Ravichander, who earlier gave music for Vijay's Kaththi, Master and Beast, is the composer of Thalapathy 67. The project, which started shooting earlier this month, is produced by S S Lalit Kumar and co-produced by Jagadish Palanisamy. The plot details of the movie have been kept under wraps. However, there are speculations that the movie is part of Kanagaraj's Lokesh Cinematic Universe, which also includes Karthi-led Kaithi and Vikram, headlined by cinema veteran Kamal Haasan.
