Kamal Haasan's statement addresses the postponement of the Thug Life audio launch, originally set for May 16, 2025, at Chennai’s Nehru Indoor Stadium, due to heightened tensions at India’s borders following recent developments in national security, as reported by the Ministry of Home Affairs.The decision reflects a call for solidarity with soldiers on the frontlines, with Haasan urging a more restrained celebration amid the uncertain climate, aligning with India’s historical practice of adjusting cultural events during times of national crisis, such as the 1999 Kargil War.Thug Life, a Tamil gangster action drama directed by Mani Ratnam, features a star-studded cast including Silambarasan and Trisha Krishnan, and is still scheduled for a theatrical release on June 5, 2025, as confirmed by Raaj Kamal Films International.
