” Dilli will return soon,” said Director Lokesh Kanagaraj. The young and talented director today attended Karthi’s upcoming film Japan’s pre-release event in Chennai. At the event, during his speech, he updated fans on the most awaited film, Kaithi 2, and said that Dilli will return soon. He also stated that first, the Sequel for Kaithi will be made, and then a standalone movie on Suriya’s Rolex will arrive.
Lokesh Kanagaraj, who is fresh from the massive success of Leo, will work with Superstar Rajinikanth on his next film. After that, he will direct Kaithi 2, followed by a standalone movie on Rolex.
It is widely known that Lokesh is a close friend of Karthi, which is why he attended the latter’s film event, which brought great excitement to the fans. As he entered the Nehru Indoor Stadium, the fans roared with joy.
Kaithi 2 has a massive craze not only in Tamil but also in Telugu audiences as well. Because the Dilli character is the most loved in LCU and at the box office, the film will take a massive opening.
Earlier, Karthi and producers had announced that after Leo, they were planning to go ahead with Kaithi 2 on a massive budget. But in between, Lokesh Kanagaraj has signed his next with Rajinikanth, and Kaithi 2 will start after this film.
![To achieve the target, 40 Cr gross is enough for the film to achieve breakeven, which is for sure a great deal for the distributor, as Dhanush's Kuberaa's Tamil Nadu rights have been underpriced. The reason for the film being sold at such a moderate price is that it was projected as a Telugu film, as it has been directed by a Telugu director. The situation is much more similar to Dhanush's other bilingual movie, Sir [Vaathi]. For the Sir movie also, the same happened, as it did extremely well in Telugu and collected more than 40 Cr gross in Telugu states, whereas in Tamil Nadu it closed under 40 crores.](https://tracktollywood.com/wp-content/smush-webp/2025/05/Kuberaa-Tamil-Nadu-Rights-Underpriced-265x198.jpg.webp "Kuberaa Tamil Nadu Rights Underpriced")
