While trade analysts are confident that 'Thupaki' will not release on announced date, August 15, director AR Murugadoss is equally positive that the film will release on August 15. It is further said that the film's audio release function will take place in the second week of July.

ARM expressed: 'Thupaki is ready to rock from August 15. Three more songs are pending to be shot. We're currently shooting a track three hours away from Pune". A romantic number between Vijay and Kajal Aggarwal is being shot in Lonavala from the past two days.

Directed by ARM, the film has music by Harris Jayaraj, cinematography by ace Santosh Sivan and sees Vidyut Jamwal and Jayaram in pivotal roles. Comic relief is by Sathyan. Vijay plays an encounter specialist in this high voltage action flick.

The crew is keen on releasing the film on the announced date. Whether they will manage to shoot three songs at the earliest and release 'Thupaki' on August 15 or see a delay like all big Tamil releases, only time will tell the tale.
