Chiyaan 64 announced:

Vikram and director Prem Kumar of 96 and Meiyazhagan fame are collaborating for the first time for an upcoming film tentatively titled Chiyaan 64. The film will be bankrolled by Vels Film International, which had recently announced its director’s lineup of films for the years 2025-2027. Much about the cast and crew has not yet been revealed by the makers, but the union of Prem Kumar and Vikram has set fans of the actor in an anticipatory mode.

While Prem Kumar is known to delve deep into human emotions, namely through his films 96 and Meiyazhagan, both films have received a good reception among the audience. Meanwhile, Vikram, who is known for his powerhouse performance, had recently starred in Veera Dheera Sooran Part 2 and Thangalaan. Both films were critically acclaimed but had middling box office success. More about Chiyaan 64 is expected to be announced soon.
