The release of Prabhu Deva’s long-awaited project, Thael, has once again been postponed. Originally scheduled to be released on December 10, the makers have postponed the release date further. Some reports suggest that the release has been delayed as the film did not get enough theaters. However, the makers have claimed that the postponement is because of “unforeseen situations.”Here are more details.
Why does this story matter?
The actor-director-choreographer was last seen in the cop drama Pon Manickavel. It majorly received negative feedback from fans and critics alike. Moreover, Deva’s recent theatrical releases Devi 2, Lakshmi, and Gulaebaghavali were also pretty disastrous. So, with the postponement of Thael, the actor’s fans are even more disappointed. We can’t help but wait for the makers to come up with a new release date.
