Lokesh’s frequent collaborators, music director Anirudh (who composed music for Rajini’s Jailer recently) and stunt directors Anbariv (who are currently working with Rajini in Vettaiyan), are also on board Thalaivar 171.

The film is produced by Sun Pictures who had earlier teamed up with Rajini for films like Enthiran, Petta, Annaatthe and Jailer. Interestingly, Lokesh had earlier confirmed that Thalaivar 171 will not be a part of his Lokesh Cinematic Universe which consists of the films Kaithi, Vikram and Leo.

The title of Thalaivar 171 will be announced with a teaser on April 22.
