Initially, the audio launch was scheduled to happen on May 16 in Chennai. Due to escalating Indo-Pak tensions, the makers postponed the event, citing national sentiments across the country’s border. While announcing the postponement, the makers wrote, “As our soldiers stand firm on the frontlines with unflinching courage in defense of our motherland, I believe it is a time for quiet solidarity, not celebration.”
Jointly produced by Raaj Kamal Films International, Madras Talkies and Red Giant Movies, Thug Life is tipped to be an action gangster drama. Cinematographer Ravi K. Chandran and editor Sreekar Prasad are part of the technical team.
