Following the success of Bigil, Vijay is currently busy with the shoot of Master, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj.

The first look poster of the movie was released on New Year's eve, much to the delight of the fans. The blurry poster has led people to believe that Vijay's character in the movie might be associated with alcoholism, but it cannot be confirmed supposedly until the movie's release. Meanwhile, a recent click of Vijay with a crew member is being circulated on social media and the actor looks like a student rather than a professor in his red t-shirt. While Malavika Mohanan has signed up to play the female lead, Vijay Sethupathi will be essaying the villain role. 'Kaithi' star Arjun Das, Andrea, and Shanthanu Bhagyaraj are also playing significant roles in the film.

Produced by Xavier Britto of XB Film Creators, Master will have music composed by Anirudh.
