The first single from Thug Life, a highly anticipated gangster action drama from Mani Ratnam and Kamal Haasan, has been launched in a star-studded event in Chennai. The film marks a reunion between Ratnam and Haasan after nearly four decades since the iconic Nayakan (1987). With music scored by AR Rahman, the first single titled 'Jinguchaa' has lyrics written by Haasan. The film boasts a star-studded ensemble, including Silambarasan TR, Trisha Krishnan, Ashok Selvan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, and others.
Thug Life is set to be released in theatres worldwide on June 5, produced by Raaj Kamal Films International, Madras Talkies, and Red Giant Movies. The film's production faced some delays due to Haasan's political engagements and an on-set injury to Joju George, but principal photography wrapped by late 2024. The makers have announced that a grand audio launch of the film will take place on May 16, followed by international promotional events. The Telugu release of the film is being handled by Hero Nithiin's father Sudhakar Reddy under Sresth Films, which has previously released Kamal Haasan's blockbuster 'Vikram' in Telugu.
The first single 'Jinguchaa' is a groovy track that celebrates a wedding and features Silambarasan TR and Sana Khan dancing to the beats. The song is sung by Vaishali Samant, Shakthisree Gopalan, and Adhitya R K, and its 'kuthu' dance sequence featuring Simbu and Kamal Haasan is expected to be a major highlight. With its catchy beat and energetic dance sequence, 'Jinguchaa' is setting the tone for an exciting film.
The film's ensemble cast, combined with the expertise of Ratnam, Haasan, and Rahman, makes Thug Life a highly anticipated release. With its grand production, star-studded cast, and promising storyline, Thug Life is shaping up to be a must-watch film. Fans are eagerly waiting for the film's release on June 5.
