Actor Rahman's mystery thriller 'Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru' aka 'D-16' was earlier scheduled to hit the screens on December 30, 2016. Now the makers have taken the bold step of advancing the release date by one day and now the film directed by 21 year old debutant Karthick Naren will be hitting the screens on December 29, Thursday.

With a day added and good pre-release buzz, 'D-16' is expected to have an added advantage among the slew of Tamil films that will be releasing in the last weekend of the year.

James Bejoy has rendered the musical score. Sujith Sarang has handled the Cinematography. Sreejith Sarang has worked as the Editor. The trailer and responses from celebrity shows have created a good positive feel about the film.
