The latest news from Bollywood is that Kangana Ranaut’s much-anticipated film ‘Thalaivi’ is all set to release in theatres on April 23, 2021. The film, which is based on the life of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa, was originally slated for release in June 2020, but was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Kangana Ranaut, who plays the lead role in the film, took to social media to share the news with her fans. In a tweet, she wrote, “The legend we know, but the story that is yet to be told! Presenting #Thalaivi, releasing in theaters on 23rd April 2021.”
Directed by A.L. Vijay and produced by Vishnu Vardhan Induri and Shailesh R. Singh, ‘Thalaivi’ has been generating a lot of buzz ever since its announcement. The film’s trailer, which was released a few weeks ago, has received an overwhelmingly positive response from fans and critics alike.
Kangana Ranaut, who is known for her powerful performances, underwent a major transformation for the film. She gained weight to play the role of Jayalalithaa in her later years and even learned Tamil to get the accent and mannerisms right.
Apart from Kangana, the film also stars Arvind Swami as M.G. Ramachandran, the founder of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) party, and Bhagyashree as Jayalalithaa’s mother Sandhya. The film’s music has been composed by G.V. Prakash Kumar.
‘Thalaivi’ is not the only film that Kangana has in her kitty. She has several other projects lined up, including ‘Dhaakad’, ‘Tejas’, and ‘Manikarnika Returns: The Legend of Didda’. She has been working tirelessly to promote ‘Thalaivi’ and has been sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses of the film on her social media handles.
With ‘Thalaivi’ finally set to hit the theatres, Kangana Ranaut’s fans are eagerly awaiting the film’s release. The actress, who has always been vocal about her opinions, is sure to deliver a power-packed performance in the film and leave a lasting impact on the audience.
