Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has made remarks on the rumoured release date of 'Thalaivi', which is a biopic of the late politician J Jayalalithaa. Squashing the rumour that the film is hitting the screens in August, the 'Panga' and 'Queen' actress said that no date has been locked.

"No release date has been finalized for Thalaivi yet, please refrain from rumours. We will release the film as and when cinemas open all across the country. Thanks," Kangana, who was banned from Twitter earlier this year, wrote on Instagram.

Directed by AL Vijay, the film will tell the inspirational journey of the late actress-turned-politician right when she debuted in movies when she was all of 16. Arvind Swami has played MGR, described by the makers as Jaya's inspiration, love interest, and mentor.

Also featuring Nassar, Bhagyashree, Samuthrakani and Madhu Bala, the film is helmed by AL Vijay. With music by GV Prakash, its cinematography is by Vishal Vittal.
