Thalaivi, based on the life of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, is being directed by AL Vijay. The film is being made in two parts.

The first look and teaser of Thalaivi were released in November last year. The film was scheduled to release on 26 June 2020, but got delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Kangana is said to have learnt Tamil and Bharatanatyam dance form for her role as Jayalalithaa. She gained 20 kilos and was incredibly uncanny as seen in one of the film’s posters. The film will also see Arvind Swamy as MGR, Priyamani as Sasikala, and Prakash Raj as Karunanidhi.

Team Thalaivi team spent more than a year in pre-production and collected materials to formulate the screenplay.

The film, which is jointly produced by Vishnu Vardhan Induri and Shailesh R Singh, will release worldwide in three languages.
