'Popular actor Aravind Swamy who recently played a crucial role in Mani Ratnam's directorial 'Chekka Chivantha Vaanam' is now going to play a key role in 'Thalaivi'.
Aravind Swamy is playing the role of legendary Tamil actor and former Tamil Nadu chief minister MG Ramachandran in the movie. Starring Kangana Ranaut, 'Thalaivi' is the much-awaited biopic on veteran actress and former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalitha. Today, on the occasion of MGR's birthday, the makers have released the poster of Aravind Swamy in MGR's look who is looking handsome and is just like MGR in the picture. The makers also released a teaser video that featured some visuals of MGR from his old movies and introducing Aravind Swamy as MGR.
There were rumours about the director Vijay designing the look of Aravind Swami in the film and doubts on Aravind Swami pulling off the same. But, successfully, Aravind Swami pulled it off with ease and we can see that he worked very hard in getting everything right on the screen.
AL Vijay is helming this project. The movie will get released in 2020 in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu languages. Vishnu Induri and Shailesh Singh are funding this project.
