Why Vijay Sethupathy's Thalaivan Thalaivii Doesn't Have A Telugu Release Yet?
Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen's film Thalaivan Thalaivii hits theatres today, though the Telugu version has not been released. Makkal Selvan Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen have returned to the silver screen with their romantic family drama, Thalaivan Thalaivii, which is officially released in theatres today, July 25. Directed by Pandiraj and produced by Sathya Jyothi Films, the film had already sparked major excitement thanks to its vibrant promotional campaign and the beloved pairing of its leads. The story blends themes of love, familial bonding and comedy, offering an emotionally rich and entertaining experience. Audiences have already begun responding positively, with social media flooded with praise for the film's feel-good narrative, relatable characters and warm performances. The film also features comedian Yogi Babu in a special role and the music by Santhosh Narayanan has been widely appreciated for adding emotional depth and charm to the storyline. Although the film was initially announced to have a Telugu version titled Sir Madam, its release status remains unclear. While the Tamil version opened in theatres as planned, tickets for Sir Madam are yet to be listed in Telugu-speaking regions. So far, there has been no official confirmation from the makers about whether the Telugu version will see a delayed theatrical release or skip theatres in favour of a direct OTT premiere. Industry insiders speculate that the team may have chosen to avoid a box-office clash with the big-budget Telugu film Hari Hara Veera Mallu. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Think Music India (@thinkmusicofficial) Vijay Sethupathi had earlier unveiled the teaser on May 4 via his Instagram handle, captioning it: 'Presenting the #ThalaivanThalaivii Title Teaser — a glimpse into a love story that's equal parts chaos and charm. Watch, feel, repeat. #VJS52." What makes Thalaivan Thalaivii particularly appealing is its effortless balance between humour and heartfelt emotion. The title, which translates to 'Leader (Male) and Leader (Female)," suggests an equal partnership between the protagonists, both in love and in life. This concept is reflected in the film's tone and structure, offering a fresh yet rooted narrative that celebrates companionship, mutual respect and the beauty of everyday relationships. Vijay Sethupathi has an exciting lineup of films beyond Thalaivan Thalaivii. Up next is Gandhi Talks, an experimental silent comedy-drama written and directed by Kishor Pandurang Belekar. The film co-stars Aditi Rao Hydari, Arvind Swamy, Mahesh Manjrekar and others and has already made history as the first Indian silent film to be screened at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI). In addition, Vijay has several buzzworthy projects in the pipeline, including Rolex, Train and Vikram 2. Each of these titles promises to showcase his remarkable range as an actor and continues to build anticipation among fans and critics alike. Nithya Menen Joins Dhanush in Upcoming Drama Idly Kadai Nithya Menen will next be seen in Idly Kadai, a Tamil-language drama directed and co-produced by Dhanush under his home banner, Wunderbar Films, in association with Dawn Pictures. The film pairs Nithya with Dhanush in the lead and features a strong ensemble cast including Arun Vijay, Shalini Pandey, Sathyaraj, Parthiban, P. Samuthirakani and Rajkiran.

Nithya Menen reveals she no longer seeks a soulmate; says ‘Love is not a central theme of my life anymore'
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Actor Nithya Menen , currently promoting her romantic comedy 'Thalaivan Thalaivii' alongside Vijay Sethupathi, got introspective about her journey with love and relationships. In a candid conversation on The Ramya Show, Nithya spoke about how her early ideas of love have changed over time. 'When I was younger, it was so important to me to find my soulmate,' she shared, explaining how family and societal expectations had once made her believe marriage was inevitable. 'Otherwise, you feel like a failure,' she added. But that belief has since shifted. Nithya now sees love and marriage as possibilities, not necessities. 'If it happens, great. If it doesn't happen, also great. It doesn't give me grief.' Heartbreak every time—but no regrets Speaking to SS Music, Nithya reflected on her past relationships with striking honesty. 'I've been heartbroken every single time,' she said, without hesitation. For her, each experience became a learning moment. 'It's obviously why I am not with someone right now,' she admitted. Rather than feel bitter, Nithya now values the clarity heartbreak brought her. 'All of that only teaches you about people's intentions,' she said. 'You realise what you're searching itself is wrong, you have to leave it.' With no illusions left, she sees life as an open path. 'Every set notion has broken for me, freeing me up to live life.' Sir Madam - Official Telugu Trailer Won't be pressured into marriage Nithya also addressed the pressure that often comes from families and society to 'settle down.' She was clear that she wouldn't let herself be forced into marriage. Choosing not to conform, she referenced Ratan Tata who never married as an example that a fulfilling life doesn't need to include a spouse. 'You can live a different life,' she said. That choice, she believes, doesn't make one any less successful or whole.
