The first look of
Ajith Kumar's Vivegam, popularly known as Thala 57, was unveiled on Thursday. The poster features the fearsome side of Ajith in six-packs surrounded by soldiers and choppers. The tagline of the poster reads: "Believe in yourself." The 45-year-old actor stars as an Interpol officer in
Vivegam, which is one of the most-anticipated Tamil films of the year. The team is currently wrapping up the remaining portions of the film, helmed by Siva.
Vivegam will be Ajith and Siva's third film together after
Veeram and
Vedalam. Both the films were successful at the box office. Here's the first look of Ajith's
Vivegam:
Vivegam also stars Kajal Aggarwal and Akshara Haasan in pivotal roles while Bollywood actor
Vivek Oberoi will be introduced as the prime antagonist. Vivek too shared the poster of the film and appreciated Ajith's transformation. He wrote: "And here's the English version #Vivegam ! Ajith anna's phenomenal transformation! So inspiring! #Thala57FirstLook"
The film is shot across key locations in Europe and Bulagria. Akshara had previously tweeted about shooting for
Vivegam in Bulgaria.
She also shared a picture of Ajith performing bike-stunts.
Anirudh Ravichander will compose the music for
Vivegam. He is collaborating with Ajith for the second time after the success of
Vedalam. Anirudh told
Indian Express, "After
Vedalam, the expectation of the audience from our team is really high. And we are trying to live up to it.
Thala 57 is a different premise, It will be stylish like a James Bond film. So obviously the music will also be new and different."
Produced under Sathya Jyothi Films banner, the
Vivegam will release in June.
