Looks like the flavour of the season is “gangster” flicks. We’ve heard a couple of gangster movies being made including Dhanush’s Jagame Thandhiram. It is now confirmed that Silambarasan TR or STR’s next is also on the lines of a gangster story.
Believed to be a remake of Kannada superhit Mufti, this STR’s movie is titled Pathu Thaladirected by Krishna, who made Sillunu Oru Kadhal starring Suriya and Jyothika.
Going by reports, director Krishna has roped in A R Rahman as the music director. Both of them had previously worked together in Silunu Oru Kadhal which was a musical hit. Sources say that Rahman has already started composing for the album.
Pathu Thala will also have Gautham Karthik, reportedly playing a role of a cop while the leading lady is Priya Bhavani Shankar whose last release was Kalathil Santhippom. Sources also add that the shooting will commence once the lockdown is lifted. Simbu is waiting to wrap up Venkat Prabhu`s Maanaadu.
