Superstar Rajinikanth is currently working on his next release, Jailer 2, and is also expected to begin filming his next venture, Thalaivar173, soon. However, it appears that the film may once again undergo a change in its directorial team.
Is Rajinikanth’s Thalaivar173 set to replace Cibi Chakaravarthi as director?
According to Valai Pechu, Don director Cibi Chakaravarthi is likely to be replaced as the director of Thalaivar173. Reportedly, the filmmaker is involved in a dispute with a Telugu production house over a film starring Nani, which he opted out of due to creative differences.
However, the producers claim to have already spent money on the untitled project’s pre-production and are asking him to repay the amount. Speculation suggests that the team even requested a partnership in Thalaivar173, but the producers, RKFI, rejected the proposal.
Due to the issue reportedly remaining unresolved, the makers may replace Cibi as director and instead bring in Dragon director Ashwath Marimuthu. The latter had earlier revealed that he narrated a story to Rajinikanth, which the superstar liked.
However, these reports remain unconfirmed, as no official statement has been made by the makers.
