Kamal Haasan, Mani Ratnam, A R Rahman, Silambarasan T R, Trisha Krishnan, Abhirami and Ashok Selvan attended the press conference of their much-awaited Pan India film, Thug Life, at a multiplex in Mumbai. A few weeks ago, there were reports that this much-awaited film would arrive on a digital platform after completing 8 weeks in cinemas.

On the contrary, we assume the audience to be dumb and we push their dumbness further down in the hope of even reaching the dumbest of the audience by making films like ____________.” While he left the last bit open-ended, many followers shared their disappointment over the filmmaker’s attitude—especially given his own track record in recent years.

In a significant turn of events, the much-anticipated Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi starrer Bhool Chuk Maaf will now release in theatres on May 23, 2025, following a court directive. The decision comes after a legal dispute between Maddock Films and PVR Inox Cinemas was resolved, putting an end to weeks of uncertainty surrounding the film's release.

The abrupt move left PVR Inox fuming prompting them to sue Maddock for a breach of contract amounting to Rs. 60 crores.
