Last Updated: Thalaivan Thalaivii promises an amazing blend of drama, comedy and intensely relatable relationship instability. The trailer for the family drama Thalaivan Thalaivii, starring Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen, released a day back and it gained a lot of attention. The film presents a unique love story that unfolds like a cat-and-mouse chase between two equally determined people. During a promotional event for the film Vijay Sethupathi expressed his admiration for his co-star Nithya Menen. A report by Mathrubhumi mentioned that while speaking at a promotional event, the actor commended Nithya's tremendous range and devotion, describing her as 'an actor par excellence." He said, 'It's impossible to imagine anybody else in the roles Nithya has played so far." Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen previously shared screen space in the 2022 Malayalam film 19(1) (a). Recalling their time on that project, Vijay said, 'We had always wanted to work together again, and when Thalaivan Thalaivii came our way, it felt like the perfect story for us both." Thalaivan Thalaivii is directed by Pandiraj. It promises a delectable blend of drama, comedy, and intensely relatable relationship instability. The film is due to enter theatres on July 25. Thalaivan Thalaivii features a strong supporting cast, including Yogi Babu, Chemban Vinod Jose, Saravanan, RK Suresh, Kaali Venkat, Aruldoss, Roshni Haripriyan, Muthu Kumar, Deepa and Sendrayan. The film is produced by Sendhil Thyagarajan and Arjun Thyagarajan through Sathya Jyothi Films. The soundtrack is handled by Santhosh Narayanan, the camera work is done by M Sukumar, and the editor is Pradeep E Ragav. The trailer begins with a newly married couple's budding romance. However, the tone swiftly swings as issues appear in their relationship, hurting their joint restaurant company. A notice reading 'The place is closed due to unresolved argument" suggests the emotional consequences. What follows appears to be a mix of drama and laughter as the story explores whether the couple will reunite or part ways. Vijay Sethupathi was last seen in Ace, and he has a busy schedule ahead, including Mysskin's next thriller Train and a major action feature starring Tabu, directed by Puri Jagannadh and produced by Puri Connects.
