Despite being a film from legendary names like Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam, Thug Life had very little attention until now. Even though this is their reunion after many years of the cult classic Nayakudu, the film was flying under the radar. Kamal Haasan’s break from frequent films, Mani Ratnam’s recent dull phase, and the lack of strong promotions kept the excitement low, especially among Telugu audiences.
But everything changed when the trailer dropped.
The trailer released with no big expectations, but it surprised everyone. It gave audiences a clear idea of the film’s scale, intensity, and emotional depth. The powerful face-off between Kamal Haasan and Simbu looks like a major highlight. Supporting actors like Nassar and Joju George also left a strong impression with their intriguing roles.
The trailer suggests this is not just another gangster drama. Mani Ratnam seems to have added his emotional touch and visual storytelling to a familiar genre. Every scene sparked curiosity and made the film look exciting.
What caught everyone off guard was Kamal Haasan’s romantic scenes with Trisha and Abhirami. These moments instantly went viral and started trending. Social media was flooded with reactions. Even the criticism helped the film grab more attention.
Now the same movie that was getting ignored is suddenly one of the most talked about projects of the season. With no major films in theaters right now, Thug Life is expected to have a strong opening in both Tamil and Telugu. Many believe this could be the big commercial comeback Mani Ratnam has been waiting for.
