Chiyaan 63 remains on schedule amid shelving speculation
The makers clarify that Vikram’s Chiyaan 63 is progressing as planned, dismissing speculation about the film being shelved or put on hold.
Contrary to recent online speculation, Vikram’s upcoming project Chiyaan 63 is very much active and continues to progress, with the film still in production, the team has confirmed. Rumors suggesting that the film had been dropped gained traction online, but representatives for the actor have swiftly refuted such claims.
Initially announced in October 2025 by Shanthi Talkies, Chiyaan 63 has seen some changes since its conception. The film was first linked with director Madonne Ashwin, known for Mandela and Maaveeran, but the directorial reins were later handed to Bodi Rajkumar, a debutant filmmaker recognized for award-winning short films such as Amen and Lo and Behold.
While official details on the cast, story line, and production schedule remain scant, Vikram’s own social media activity helped quell concerns around the film’s status. Recently, the actor confirmed that Chiyaan 63 is among four new projects he will be working on, underscoring that the venture continues to be part of his forthcoming slate.
Despite the lack of frequent updates in recent months, industry insiders and close sources close to the project assert that development has not stalled, and any suggestions about the film being shelved are unfounded. An official statement or further announcements regarding Chiyaan 63 are anticipated in the near future as production advances.
Fans of the versatile actor – last seen in Veera Dheera Sooran: Part 2, can rest assured that the film remains on track. The rumors about its discontinuation have been dismissed by those associated with the project, leaving the way clear for official updates soon
