Makkal Selvan Vijay Sethupathi keeps his word and his fiilm Laabam will be released on September 9th. Tamil actor Kathir who received critical acclaim for 'Pariyerum Perumal'. and also did well at the box office has been signed for Atlee directed Shah Rukh Khan film. It already has Nayanthara as the heroine. Simbu and Gauttham Menon who are shooting for Venthu Thaninthathu Kaadu is to come back from Trichendur to Chennai and before that a few portions will be shot in Mumbai.
With box office reports of Bell Bottom in Hindi not doing well in theaters, Tamil Nadu exhibitors too were a worried lot. The neighboring Andhra / TS theaters too have not shown any robust opening as it did after the first Covid lockdown was withdrawn. S R Kalyanamandapam is the only film that is doing well. Andhra theaters are hoping for CM to give a concession in ticket rates for small - medium budget films.
Vijay Sethupathi who is playing the lead as well as villanish ones in several Soouth languages as well as in Hindi had tweeted a year back that Laabam would be only a theater release. The film directed by Jannathan ( he died recently) is a tale of fight against corporates exploitation . The film's protagonist is Sruthi Haasan. Laabam has Sethupathi playing the role of a social activist who galvanizes support of the proletariat to start a revolution. Sethupathi plays a reporter who comes to the village to do a story and stays back to fight for the villagers.
Vijay Antony film Kodiyil oruvan and Rio Raj- Remya Nabeesan Plan Panninum mannanum, are other films to hit theaters and Arya's Sarpatta parambarai which was released on OTT and said to release in movie halls will not make it as Ott has shot it down
