A while ago, producer Boney Kapoor had stated in an interview that his second film with Ajith after Nerkonda Paarvai which is tentatively titled AK 60, will begin from August 29, 2019 and that shooting will begin from September, 2019. Now, making things more official the Bollywood producer has stated via his micro-blogging page that the movie's pooja ceremony will take place towards the end of August, 2019. 

"A big thank you to the entire unit of #NerkondaPaarvai for working towards August 8th release. Happy to announce our next AK60 with #AjithKumar #HVinoth and @ZeeStudios will start with Pooja end August 2019.", wrote Kapoor. Touted to be an action thriller, Thala 60 will supposedly have Ajith's 'love for speed' incorporated in it and according to director H. Vinoth, it will be a 'huge project.' 

The film will be shot in overseas locations and an official announcement on the cast and crew is expected to be made post the release of Nerkonda Paarvai.
