Thalaivi also stars South Indian actor Arvind Swami in the role of former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M G Ramachandran.

A multilingual film, which has been made in Hindi as well as Tamil and Telugu,
Thalaivi will take viewers through the journey of Jayalalitha from a Tamil superstar to one of the most powerful Iron Lady in politics.

The film has evoked tremendous buzz among cinelovers and members of the film industry due to its promos and trailer.

One of the highlights of the film's trailer has been the scene showing yhe violence that erupted in the Tamil Nadu Assembly in March 1989 between members of AIADMK and MLAs of Karunanidhi's DMK. In the violence, Jayalalitha  was badly humiliated with her hair and saree  pulled and torn by DMK members.

The  film was earlier scheduled to release in April but was pushed due to the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic in the country.

Thalaivi is the third big release, after Akshay Kumar starrer Bell Bottom  and the Amitabh Bachchan Emraan Hashmi starrer  Chehre , to  release in theatres post the reopening of cinema halls after a prolonged closure due to the second wave of COVID-19.
