Thalapathy Vijay will next be seen in Beast, co-starring Pooja Hegde. The dark comedy flick will be released in theatres on April 14, and fans are excited.

Vijay's next film will be tentatively titled Thalapathy66, and if rumours are to be believed, the stars would begin filming in the first week of April with an official puja celebration.

The makers have now revealed that Pushpa actress Rashmika Mandanna would co-star with Vijay in this film. In this film, the actress will romance Thalapathy Vijay for the first time. Sri Venkateshwara Creations took to Twitter on the eve of her birthday to announce the news.

Rashmika Mandanna is coming off the success of Allu Arjun's Pushpa: The Rise. The actress has a slew of films in various phases of development. That actress appears to have landed a biggie. Previously, the producers considered Pooja Hegde and Kiara Advani for the lead roles in the film. They have, however, zeroed in on Rashmika.

Dil Raju will produce the film, which will be directed by Vamshi Paidipally. During an interview, the director revealed that Thalapathy 66 will be emotionally charged, and that the script was made with the actor's fame in mind. This will be Dil Raju, Vamsi Paidipally, and Thalapathy Vijay's debut collaboration. More information regarding the film's cast and crew is awaited. According to sources, the film will be made on a large scale, and it has already begun to gain traction on social media.
