Chiyaan Vikram starrer film Thangalaan directed by Pa Ranjith in their first collaboration gets a new look with a release announcement.

Initially scheduled to hit the screens on January 26, 2024, coinciding with Republic Day, the film faced a delay last month. However, the wait is finally over as the makers have now revealed that Thangalaan will grace the theaters this year in April.

The makers of the film decided not to release it in January because they still had a lot of visual effects work to do. They wanted to focus on developing the film further. 

This film is an action-packed historical drama that takes place during British rule in India. It tells the story of Thangalaan, a tribal leader who bravely fights against the British when they try to take his land for gold mining in the Kolar Gold Fields area. 

Last year, a teaser for Thangalaan was released, giving us a glimpse of all the characters in a unique and different appearance. Chiyaan Vikram, in particular, was seen sporting a dark, gritty, and rough look.

More about Thangalaan

Thangalaan starring Chiyaan Vikram in the lead role is directed by Pa Ranjith with actors like Parvathy Thiruvothu, Malavika Mohanan, Pasupathy, Daniel Caltagirone, and many more joining the cast.

The film’s teaser featured all these actors with Parvathy playing the character of Gangammal who interacts with otherworldly beings in a trance state and Malavika playing Aarathi who has a sonic boom voice superpower, similar to Black Canary from the DC comics.

GV Prakash Kumar has composed the music for the film, teaming up with Pa Ranjith for the first time and for the third time with Vikram. They previously worked together on the movies Deiva Thirumagal and Thaandavam in 2011 and 2012.

Vikram’s work front

After working on Thangalaan, Chiyaan Vikram is teaming up with director SU Arun Kumar, who directed Chithha starring Siddharth. Their upcoming film, tentatively titled Chiyaan 62, was announced through a promo teaser released last year.

In addition to this project, Vikram will also be seen in Gautham Vasudev Menon's Dhruva Natchathiram. The film boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Vinayakan, Simran, Raadhika Sarathkumar, Ritu Varma, Arjun Das, and many others in prominent roles.

Originally scheduled for release on November 24th, the film faced financial troubles due to the director, who also produced it. As a result, it was restrained from release once again.
