'Thuppaki' is expected to rename as 'Saravedi'

The title case of Vijay starrer 'Thuppaki' has been pushed again! It has been postponed to September 17.

Earlier, the makers of 'Kallathuppaki' had filed a case against 'Thuppaki' as they claimed the similarity in titles will mislead audience, their title was first registered and since Vijay is a popular figure, people might be inclined to 'Thuppaki' more than 'Kallathupaki'.

Thus, the court had banned the makers from using the title 'Thuppaki'.

Starring Vijay and Kajal Aggarwal, the film by AR Murugadoss aims at a Diwali release and has music by Harris Jayaraj. Vijay and Andrea have crooned a number in it. It sees Vijay as an encounter specialist in Mumbai.

Meanwhile, it was said that if the title issue isn't resolved on September 10, the makers will rename it, preferably as 'Saravedi', since they're not able to release any trailer, posters or promos of 'Thuppaki' that's slated for Diwali release.

We'll have to wait to see if the team will wait till September 17 or rename the film.
