Thalapathy 66 gets a title—Varisu. Rashmika plays the leading lady in Vamsi Paidipally directorial. The film also stars Sarathkumar, Prakashraj, and Yogi Babu in prominent roles. Produced jointly by Vamsi Paidipally and Dil Raju's Sri Venkateswara Creations, the film is bilingual in Tamil and Telugu.

There are reports that Vijay will play a dual role in the film. We have already reported that the film will be a big-budget, family entertainer with sentiment being the highlight. Now, there are reports that Vijay plays the role of an Erotomaniac, a rare mental disorder where a person is fixated on the idea that another person is intensely in love with them. The person's delusions are often a celebrity and believes that he/she is communicating with them using secret messages. If reports are true, he will also sport a younger look in the film. Shot simultaneously in Tamil and Telugu, the film is likely to hit the screens for Pongal 2023.
