Chiyaan Vikram's 'Thangalaan' faces delay? - Deets about the new release date
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,December 20 2023]
Chiyaan Vikram has promising films in his pipeline but they are having a hard time in having an on-time release. Earlier, the actor's long-delayed action saga 'Dhruva Natchathiram' was prepared for November 24 release but was postponed indefinitely at the last minute due to unsolvable financial dues.
Now, Chiyaan's magnum opus 'Thangalaan' is said to be postponed from the announced release date. The makers initially announced that this movie would hit the screens on 26th January 2024 colliding with Republic Day. However, recent reports suggest that Thangalaan is pushed to March 28/29 which falls close to Good Friday and is a long weekend.
Indiaglitz has learnt this delay is because of the post-production work takes longer than expected. Also, the team has planned to take the film to various prestigious film festivals across the world before the theatrical release. 'Thangalaan' directed by Pa Ranjith is a story about the natives of the Kolar Gold Fields in Karnataka set in the pre-independence era.
GV Prakash Kumar is scoring music for Thangalaan which is produced by Studio Green and Neelam Productions. On the other hand, Chiyaan Vikram is in Goa with the 'Chiyaan 62' director SU Arunkumar. The two are reportedly in the script discussion as a part of the pre-production. The shooting of 'Chiyaan 62' is likely to begin in March/April 2024.
