Fans of Ajith continue to wait for an update ever since Vignesh Shivan has been replaced by Magizh Thirumeni, though an official announcement on the latter coming on board is yet to be made. Tentatively titled AK 62, Santhosh Narayanan is said to have been roped in as its music composer.
However, it looks like the team will take some time to make announcements on the project which is bankrolled by Lyca Productions. In the meantime, Anirudh's name has started surfacing again with regard to composing for the film. If everything goes well, AK 62 will mark the first time collaboration of Magizh and Santhosh for an Ajith-starrer.
Meanwhile, Magizh's PR team has informed officially that the filmmaker is not on any social media platforms and have requested film buffs to be aware of fake accounts. The Twitter post read, "It is hereby declared that Director Magizh thirumeni is not in any social media requesting the media ,fans and the general audience to avoid and ignore messages from any fake accounts (sic)."
Cinephiles started asking for updates on AK 62 in the comment section and said that they are already aware of Magizh's absence on social media. There were various fake Twitter pages in the name of H Vinoth, the director who helmed three projects of Ajith back-to-back in recent years.
Nirav Shah, who cranked the camera for all the three projects of Ajith-H Vinoth films, is said to be handling cinematography for AK 62 as well. There are reports that the movie was launched yesterday and that updates will be announced only after March.
The project was scheduled as a Deepavali release. We will have to wait and see how the makers are going to pull it off.
