Thalapathy 64, that Vjiay’s 64th film was being addressed since its announcement, has finally found its much-awaited name. The movie has been titled Master, as ‘Thalapathy’ fans received the best New Year gift from the Tamil superstar. Not jut the title, Vijay’s look and the design of the poster too awed his fans, while celebrities also hailed it.

The first look of Master features Vijay in a rugged look, with an unusually heavy beard as he pulled his hair back with his hand.  He also is turning around a circular object and that also seemed to be related to the blurry effect on the poster. Vijay, like always, didn't say much, and only used the hashtag #Master. 

Here's the post 

With Master, Vijay also carried forward a 12-year-old norm of having titles of just a single word, the last multiple-word title being Azhagiya Tamil Magan in 2007. 

The actor’s co-star in the movie, Malavika Mohanan wrote, “Happy New Year from us to you!”

Vijay fans proved their craze for the superstar, notching up 45K likes and 26K+ retweets on his post in just one minute. Till the time of publishing this story, 64.5K retweets and 125.6K likes were registered on it. 

They also hailed the Sarkar star with praises, calling him ‘Thalaivaa’, predicting a Rs 350-crore blockbuster, or the oft-used ‘Marana Mass’ and more to convey their excitement.
