Kamal Haasan’s Thug Life Now Streaming (2025): The National Film Awards-winning director & actor Mani Ratnam & Kamal Haasan reunited after a long time, post the previous collaboration of Nayakan (1987), in the PAN Indian film “Thug Life“. The gangster drama debuted at the box office on 5 June 2025. Despite notable hype ahead of the grand debut, due to the mixed word of mouth, it failed to secure even 50% of its budget amount (around Rs 97.25 Cr gross globally as per Sacnilk.com). Now, after around a month of theatrical run, it started streaming on the OTT platform.
Including Haasan, Silambarasan, Trisha Krishnan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Abhirami, Ashok Selvan and others who are teamed up with the film.
