The success of Doctor has increased the stakes for Nelson Dilipkumar’s upcoming film, Beast, which stars Thalapathy Vijay and Pooja Hegde. The film was once seen as a long shot in the Tamil industry, but it is now one of the most eagerly anticipated movies of 2022. The team of Beast will be returning to Georgia for the last schedule of this action-packed thriller this month end.
“While there is a common notion that a major chunk of Beast unfolds in Georgia, it’s not the case. The makers are recreating Kashmir and the Indo – Pak border in Georgia to shoot some army based sequences featuring Thalapathy Vijay. There’s a track in which the superstar will be seen as an army officer guarding the Indian border in Kashmir, before he shifts his base to Chennai. This forms a crucial emotional crust of the film,” revealed a source close to the development.
After the Georgia schedule, team Beast will be able to focus on getting the film ready for a summer 2022 theatrical release. While a subplot is set against the backdrop of the Indian army, the main plot of Beast takes place in a shopping centre that has been taken over by terrorists. It’s about Vijay’s ability to seize control and successfully liberate all of the hostages without causing too many casualties.
Pooja Hegde plays his love interest in the film. Insiders are praising the film for being an invasion thriller with plenty of action and emotions. Fans of Thalapathy Vijay will get to witness him in an entirely new avatar, according to reports. Following Beast, Vijay will work on Dil Raju’s forthcoming film Thalapathy 66, which will be directed by Vamsi Paidipally. It is claimed to be one of the largest Tamil-Telugu bilingual productions, with talent from both sectors contributing.
