Chiyaan64: Vikram to take on ruthless avatar in actioner with Prem Kumar, here's when it may begin filming
According to a recent report, Chiyaan Vikram's Chiyaan64 is expected to be a brutal action thriller, with shooting set to begin in just a matter of days.

Chiyaan Vikram is all geared up to begin works for his next movie, tentatively titled Chiyaan64. The film, being helmed by 96 fame Prem Kumar, was recently made official with a new update coming in about its shoot.
Chiyaan64 to begin shooting soon?
According to a report by Cinema Vikatan, Chiyaan Vikram's starrer will be a brutal action thriller, marking a first for director Prem Kumar. The film will feature the Thangalaan actor in a ruthless avatar, with the shoot set to begin in August or September 2025.
While more details about its shoot are not available, the screenplay, penned by the Meiyazhagan director, is said to have created an awe in Vikram and the producer.
As casting for Chiyaan64 is said to be underway, the report also suggests that Chiyaan63, with Maaveeran director Madonne Ashwin, is still in the plans. Vikram will wrap up the Prem Kumar project before moving ahead with the other one.
Interestingly, Prem Kumar will likely take on the sequel to 96 with Vijay Sethupathi and Trisha Krishnan only after completing the Vikram movie.
Chiyaan64 was made official earlier by the makers themselves, who shared the update and said, “A collaboration that promises magic on screen. We at Vels Film International are proud to present our next prestigious venture #Chiyaan64, starring the phenomenal Chiyaan Vikram and directed by the visionary #PremKumar.”
