Blockbuster hit Tamil film director Atlee has been busy with the script-writing works for his next film, his fifth directorial, which many have been speculating for a while will be his Bollywood debut, with superstar Shah Rukh Khan in the lead role. Although SRK has been filming his Pathan with John Abraham and Deepika Padukone for sometime, there have been reports stating that he will be collaborating with Atlee once he completes his ongoing venture, with an official announcement on the project currently being awaited. That said, Atlee on Thursday took to social media to reveal a secret about himself, which he had not shared before to date.
Taking to his Instagram page, Atlee shared a picture with the text, "A 'lychnobyte' is someone who sleeps all day and works at night", while informing in the caption that those words are the best way to describe himself. Fans have been looking forward to an announcement in regard to Atlee's next for sometime now, considering the smash hit director had updated his Twitter bio with the tentative title of his next venture as A5. There have also been reports across certain sections of the media, including strong speculations on social media that Atlee could reunite with 'Thalapathy' Vijay for the fourth time after their previous box office blockbusters, Theri, Mersal and Bigil.
Atlee's track record with 'Thalapathy' Vijay has been nothing else than truly magical as each of their films have reaped in the moolah for their producers. Towards the end of December last year, Vijay had met Atlee at his office in Chennai, with a video of the superstar walking out of the premises going viral on social media. Although it is unknown to this date what the meeting was about, it led to a new round of debate among fans that the duo could have possibly discussed coming together for another project in the future.
As of now, Vijay is fresh off the success of his mega blockbuster, Master, under Lokesh Kanagaraj's direction, with the actor set to begin shooting next for the tentatively titled Thalapathy 65, which will be directed by Kolamaavu Kokila fame Nelson Dilipkumar, who as well is currently awaiting the release of his Doctor in May with Sivakarthikeyan in the lead role. With Thalapathy 65 being produced by Sun Pictures already in pre-production stages, all sights will next be on who will turn director for Thalapathy 66, with Atlee among other big names speculated to be in contention.
