Most recently, Ranaut posted a story on her Instagram account of her parents, after they had watched her upcoming film. The actor mentioned in her story that her parents predicted she would grab yet another National Award for her performance in the film. She wrote, “Mummy papa after watching the film #Thalaivii… said congratulations for the 5th National Award.” The actor has already won four such awards for her films including Queen, Tanu Weds Manu: Returns, Panga and  Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi. 

Thalaivii will be based on J. Jayalalithaa, the much-loved actor and politician, who was fondly referred to as ‘Amma’ by millions. The film will trace her journey right from her debut in the Bollywood film industry at the age of 16 to her entry in public life through politics. The film will also star Aravind Swamy, who will take on the role of M. G. Ramachandran, also called MGR. The film will be helmed by A. L. Vijay.
