Thunivu movie Production
In February 2022, Ajith Kumar’s 61st film as actor was announced with the working title AK61, to be produced by Boney Kapoor under Bayview Projects LLP and directed by H. Vinoth. It would mark the third collaboration between the trio following Nerkonda Paarvai (2019) and Valimai (2022). Vinoth said he narrated a single scene, written for a planned low-budget film, to Ajith; after he showed interest in joining, Vinoth agreed, thus the scale of the project increased. Principal photography began on 11 April at Hyderabad, and Manju Warrier signed on as the lead actress a month later. A set of Mount Road was erected in Hyderabad. The team successfully completed the first schedule at Hyderabad by 10 June 2022. The title Thunivu was announced on 21 September.
