8 Nov – Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam have finally unveiled the title of their reunion project on social media. In celebration of the Tamil thespian's 69th birthday on 7 November, the first poster of the highly-anticipated project was released online, with Kamal himself sharing it on his own social media account.
The poster, which has Kamal in character, with most of his face and head covered with a piece of fabric, has the title, "Thug Life". Other cast members include Jayam Ravi, Trisha, and Dulquer Salmaan.
"#ThugLife," was the caption that the actor chose for the post, as he listed several other names involved in the project, including composer AR Rahman. The film, which marks his 234th movie, is set for an expansive pan-Indian release and will begin shooting in a month. It is noted that Kamal and director Mani Ratnam haven't worked together for 36 years since their last movie, the 1987 blockbuster "Nayakan".
