Thalapathy Vijay’s journey from being one of Tamil cinema’s biggest stars to actor-turned-politician is already a story that could lend itself to a compelling biopic. Director Ashwath Marimuthu recently shared his vision for such a film, revealing the title he would choose and the timing he thinks would be the perfect interval.At a recent Galatta event, the filmmaker was asked a hypothetical question about directing a biopic on Vijay.

Ashwath Marimuthu says Vijay biopic would be titled
Ashwath Marimuthu shared his idea and said, “If I direct CM Joseph Vijay’s biopic, it will be titled ‘Nenjil Kudirukum’.
The first half of the film will feature his cinematic journey. His decision to enter politics will be the middle block of the film. The rest will be about his political journey.”The proposed title is particularly apt given the emotional connection Vijay has built with his fans over the years. Ashwath’s structure would also divide the story into two distinct phases: Vijay’s rise in the film industry and his subsequent transition into politics.
Vijay’s journey from cinema to politics could become a powerful biopic

His decision to move from a successful film career to politics has become one of the most significant developments at the intersection of Tamil cinema and Tamil Nadu politics.For Ashwath, the moment when Vijay chooses politics over his established career in films would be the ideal interval point.
The second half could then explore his political trajectory, including the challenges and developments that follow his entry into public life.However, the filmmaker’s comments are purely hypothetical and do not indicate that a Vijay biopic is actually being planned. Still, its choice of title and the proposed interval twist have given fans an interesting glimpse into how it might approach Vijay’s life story.
