Mersal returns: Vijay's blockbuster set for re-release
Thalapathy Vijay's hit action drama Mersal is getting a big-screen comeback on June 20, just in time for his birthday celebrations on June 22. Directed by Atlee, this marks another re-release after fan-favorites like Sachein and Ghilli made waves again recently.
A look at the film's cast and crew
Vijay takes on triple roles here—including twin brothers separated at birth, with one becoming a magician-vigilante and the other a doctor helping those in need. The film also features SJ Suryah, Kajal Aggarwal, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, and Nithya Menen. With music by AR Rahman and produced as Thenandal Studio's 100th project, Mersal was a blockbuster when it first released—and fans are ready to celebrate it all over again.
Vijay's 'Jana Nayagan' marks his foray into politics
Alongside the Mersal re-release buzz, fans can look forward to the first look of Vijay's upcoming film Jana Nayagan dropping on his birthday. Directed by H Vinoth and featuring Pooja Hegde and Bobby Deol, it's set for release in January 2026—and could be Vijay's last movie before he steps into politics.
