Director Lokesh Kanagaraj keen on Master 2 with Thalapathy Vijay, says "Vijay Anna has to decide..."

Recently, renowned Tamil director Lokesh Kanagaraj, who is praised for his intense blockbusters like Kaithi, Vikram, and Leo, revealed his own artistic preferences.

Although fans are excitedly awaiting a follow-up to the 2023 blockbuster Leo, Lokesh disclosed that he has a particular place in his heart for Master (2021), which starred Thalapathy Vijay as JD.

In a candid conversation with film critic Sudhir Srinivasan, the director shared, “Only time can tell, and Vijay Anna has to decide. We can bring him in for a cameo, but I want to do Master with him. Everyone is waiting for Leo 2, but I want to do Master with him.”

Expanding on his vision, Lokesh explained why Master remains close to him. “I think there’s a part of that story which remains untold. It’s there in the first one without any conclusion. I just want to do that film. I personally like the vibe of JD very much. Leo is a strong character and people love it, but if you personally ask me, I have a proper idea for Master 2 and he also knows it. But it’s all about timing – he now has other things he wants to achieve.”
