Vijay Sethupathi and Atlee Team Up for Ambitious Tamil Film: A New Collaboration on the Horizon
Following the massive success of Maharaja, Vijay Sethupathi is all set to embark on another exciting cinematic journey, this time with the acclaimed director Atlee. Known for his high-energy blockbusters like Mersal and Jawan, Atlee is one of the most sought-after filmmakers in Indian cinema, and his upcoming collaboration with Sethupathi has created a wave of anticipation across the industry.
Maharaja’s Success Paves the Way for New Projects
Vijay Sethupathi’s Maharaja was one of the standout films of 2024 in South Indian cinema, captivating audiences both in India and abroad. The film’s massive success, particularly in international markets like China and Japan, solidified Sethupathi’s place as one of the most versatile and beloved stars in the country. With the momentum of Maharaja still strong, reports have surfaced suggesting that Sethupathi will soon team up with Atlee for a massive Tamil project that promises to be a game-changer.
Murad Khetani Confirms the Collaboration

"There are a couple of things in the pipeline right now, and nothing is locked. The things are in the development stage, though we have locked one film," Khetani said. "Atlee and I are starting a Tamil film, which will be on the floors soon. We will announce more details shortly."
Atlee Confirms the Collaboration with Vijay Sethupathi
Soon after Khetani’s comments, Atlee himself confirmed the exciting collaboration with Vijay Sethupathi. Speaking about the project, Atlee said, "Yes, it’s a film with Vijay Sethupathi, sir.

Thalapathy 69, which is set for a 2025 release, is speculated to be Vijay’s final film before he transitions into full-time politics. Directed by H. Vinoth, the film has generated a lot of excitement among fans, especially as it marks the reunion of Vijay and Pooja Hegde, who last shared the screen in the 2022 hit Beast.
In Beast, Vijay played an ex-RAW agent trapped in a mall during a terrorist attack, using his professional skills to take down the assailants in a gripping action-packed storyline. The pair’s chemistry was widely appreciated, and fans are eager to see them together again in Thalapathy 69, which is expected to be an action-thriller with political elements.
Besides Vijay and Pooja Hegde, the movie features a star-studded ensemble, including Bobby Deol, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Prakash Raj, Narain, Priyamani, Mamitha Baiju, Monisha Blessy, and more. The film’s release is highly anticipated for Diwali 2025, and it’s expected to be a major event for fans of both Vijay and Pooja.
Vijay was last seen in The Greatest of All Time (The GOAT), a high-octane action thriller directed by Venkat Prabhu. The film follows an agent who reconnects with his son, presumed dead, only to uncover a larger conspiracy. Meanwhile, Pooja Hegde is set to appear in upcoming projects such as Deva alongside Shahid Kapoor and Suriya 44, directed by Karthik Subbaraj and starring Suriya.
What If Ghajini Had a Happy Ending?
A.R. Murugadoss’ Ghajini is a psychological thriller remembered for its tragic ending. The story of Sanjay Ramaswamy, a man with short-term memory loss avenging the death of his beloved Kalpana, left audiences moved but shattered. But what if the film had a happy ending?
In the original narrative, Kalpana’s murder leaves Sanjay broken, and despite avenging her, he remains trapped in his fractured memories. This powerful, bittersweet conclusion reinforced themes of love, loss, and vengeance.
A happier ending could have seen Kalpana survive the attack, with Sanjay protecting her and finding justice. Alternatively, Sanjay could undergo treatment, regain his memory, and start anew, honoring Kalpana’s legacy by helping others. These endings would shift the focus to hope, healing, and resilience.
While a hopeful conclusion might uplift audiences, it would also alter Ghajini’s essence. The tragic ending makes the film unforgettable, leaving us to wonder: Would a happier Ghajini have the same emotional impact?
