After the AR Murugadoss-directed political thriller Sarkar, actor Vijay will be next seen playing the lead in the sports-based drama Bigil, which stars Nayanthara as the female lead while the supporting cast includes Yogi Babu, Vivekh, Kathir, Indhuja, Jackie Shroff and others. The film's music is composed by AR Rahman.
Ahead of its audio launch, director Atlee tweeted that the romantic song featured in the film will be releasing on 18th September at 4:30 PM. He had also revealed that it is one of his most favourite songs from the album.
