The release date of 'Osthi' has been finalized at last. The STR starrer directed by Dharani, which is a remake of Bollywood blockbuster 'Dabangg', will hit the screens on December 8.

Earlier it was predicted that the film would compete in Deepavali race along with 'Velayudham', '7aum Arivu' and 'Mayakkam Enna'. But the release of 'Osthi and 'Mayakkam Enna' was delayed to 'unavoidable reasons' which paved way to a claim that the Simbu and Dhanush starrer movies would fight with each other in the last week of November.

With 'Mayakkam Enna' hitting the screens today, it has been officially announced by the producers of 'Osthi' that the movie would see the light of the day on December 8. "Plans are on to release the film in as many screens as possible," sources say.

Produced by T Ramesh under the Balaji Real Media Pvt Ltd banner in association with Reliance Entertainment, 'Osthi' has music by Thaman S and songs have already become a hit. Richa Gangopadhyay is the heroine. The film will be released in Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka by Kural TV Creation Pvt Ltd, a firm run by Simbu's family.
