Thangalaan makers are under pressure

On Tuesday, the makers of Thangalaan released a new poster of Daniel Caltagirone on the occasion of his birthday. It showed the British actor wielding a hunting rifle in his hand as he stands by the shore of a body of water. The actor is expected to play the antagonist in Thangalaan.

While the new poster may look like a new update from the makers, scores of fans seem dejected as the release date has yet to be confirmed. Thangalaan has been in making for quite sometime now and was earlier scheduled to release in January this year. However, the makers pushed the release and have not yet announced a date. With Pushpa: The Rule, which was scheduled for an August release, being pushed, fans have been expecting that Thangalaan makers will bank on the Independence Day weekend to release the film. The silence from the Thangalaan team has created furor, with netizens growing impatient with the team.
