Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam have reunited for the highly awaited action thriller Thug Life, which is now all set to release in the theatres on June 5, 2025. Since the announcement, the movie has been making waves — and now, as the trailer has finally dropped, the anticipation has reached new heights.
The trailer begins with breathtakely beautiful visuals that instantly draw you into a gritty, stylized world. Kamal Haasan is a powerful gangster, and Simbu is a crucial part that adds the layers of intensity to the story. Both their characters have a deep connection — a touching relationship forged when Simbu’s character, as a child, rescues Kamal’s life. That bond eventually turns into a father-son relationship. However, fate takes a dark turn, and the two find themselves on opposite sides, transforming from trusted allies into bitter enemies.
Kamal Haasan, in his arresting screen presence, infuses his character, torn between justice and legacy, with strong emotion and authority — a magnetic cocktail of feeling and power. Simbu, in contrast, delivers an equally raw and emotionally direct performance in which he conveys the agony of betrayal and the thirst for justice.
Directed with Mani Ratnam’s characteristic flair — blending artistic imagery and rough-around-the-edges storytelling — Thug Life pledges an intense, affecting experience. An electric score from Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman further heightens the mood of the movie, infusing it with both energy and emotion.
Supported by top production houses — Raaj Kamal Films International, Madras Talkies, and Red Giant Movies — Thug Life is set to be among the most eagerly anticipated movies of the year. With a strong cast, engaging narrative, and top production values, the film is poised to provide a cinematic experience to be had on the screen.
Don’t forget the theatrical release of Thug Life on June 5 — a suspenseful story of loyalty, conflict, and transformation.
