Kamal Haasan is gearing up for his next release, Thug Life, directed by the renowned filmmaker Maniratnam. Following the disappointing box office performance of Indian 2, Haasan is eager to bounce back with this action entertainer. Thug Life boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including Trisha Krishnan, Silambarasan TR, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Gautham Karthik, and Joju George.
The film's shoot is progressing at a brisk pace, with plans to complete production by November. Makers are eyeing a Pongal 2025 release, marking Kamal Haasan's return to the festive season after a long hiatus. However, Thug Life will face stiff competition from numerous Telugu and Tamil films releasing during the same period.
In a significant development, Netflix has secured the streaming rights for Thug Life for a whopping 150 crores, even while the film is still in production. This substantial deal underscores the project's potential and anticipation. Thug Life is produced by Kamal Haasan, Mani Ratnam, R. Mahendran, and Siva Ananth under Raaj Kamal International Films and Madras Talkies banners.
With AR Rahman handling music composition and Udhayanidhi Stalin serving as presenter, Thug Life promises to be a cinematic spectacle. As Kamal Haasan prepares for his Pongal 2025 release, fans eagerly await the film's trailer and subsequent release.
