Suriya’s much-anticipated fantasy-action film Kanguva, directed by Siva and co-starring Bobby Deol and Disha Patani, has a new release date. Initially scheduled for release on October 10, the film will now hit theaters on November 14, 2024, coinciding with Children’s Day. The shift in release date was confirmed by the film’s producers, Studio Green, on X (formerly Twitter).
They wrote, “The Battle of Pride and Glory, for the World to Witness. #Kanguva’s mighty reign storms screens from 14-11-24.” The decision was made to avoid clashing with Vettaiyan, the upcoming Rajinikanth-starrer directed by Tj Gnanavel, which is slated for a Dasara release.

Jigarthanda Double X Movie Review Rating:
Star Cast: Raghava Lawrence, S. J. Suryah, Nimisha Sajayan, Nimisha Sajayan, Naveen Chandra, Sathyan, Shine Tom Chacko
Director: Karthik Subbaraj
Writer: Karthik Subbaraj
Review of Jigarthanda Double X: A Blaze of Political Drama and Fiery Performances(Photo Credit –IMDb)
What’s Good: The film is an authentic ‘Pandya Western’ with aesthetics, an engaging protagonist’s journey, and an enigmatic narrative core. Suryah and Lawrence deliver spectacular performances, navigating moral quandaries and evoking empathy. Karthik’s trademark layers assure sustained engagement, with nods to Tamil cinema adding an enigmatic touch.
What’s Bad: The initial 30 minutes exhibit storytelling impatience. Specific sequences, like unnecessary melodrama, disrupt the flow. CGI, especially in rendering elephants, lacks an organic feel. The second half’s abundance of messages can be overwhelming, and some scenes, like the tribal wedding, seem disconnected.
Loo Break: There is a film recording scene at the 49-minute mark.

The film is produced by Hiranya Perera for Silent Frames Productions, Sri Lanka, Sanjay Gulati and Neeraj Pandey for Crawling Angel Films, India, Kaarthekeyen Santhanam for Stone Bench Films, India, Navaneethan Nachimuthu and Pon Umapathy Kailash.

Chennai, Nov 7 (Ians) Superstar Raghava Lawrence’s upcoming film ‘Jigarthanda Double X’ recently released its behind-the-scenes (BTS) clip which focuses on its crew and their technical feats. As such, the BTS clip shows small-scale real life explosions, intricate wire work, and a very detailed set design.
After his most recent film ‘Chandramukhi 2’, Raghava went to the set, things began heating up as the whole crew was brimming with excitement. Constructing things from scratch, much of the film was in fact not shot in a studio, but rather in open air where the crew made a whole small scale urban town.
This included building the houses, their interiors, shops and more. Ironically, all of this was made to be blown up later making the whole effort only more commendable. Apart from set construction, it also focuses a lot on the camerawork, specifically the use of angles and lenses to be...

Actor-director Raghava Lawrence ahead of his film ‘Jigarthanda Double X’ has released a new hip-hop track called ‘10000 Pax’. An experimental rap song, the song blends gangsta rap, freestyle, electronic, dance music creating a groove that is full swag.
Written and performed by ofRo, the song has as much of a party vibe as it oozes pure hip gangsta style. In many ways, it is similar to something that Ice-t, Eminem, or Kanye West do, but can sonically be differentiated because of its more avant-garde nature.
There is a lot of bling in the video, though it also has scenes from the film and the composition of Santhosh Narayanan who has made the track as groovy and cool as possible.
There is a very chill attitude in the whole song despite it primarily being a gangsta rap song. The delivery of ofRo is very much on point, and underlying the extremely chill nature,...

AnalysisWill the success of Nelson Dilipkumar’s ‘Jailer’ not just at the box-office but also in terms of overall appeal encourage Rajini to pave a new path, where he plays the main character but where the scenes are not packed with Rajini-isms?It has been almost two weeks since the much-awaited Superstar Rajinikanth film Jailer hit the theatres and by all accounts, it is turning out to be a massive hit.

This must come as a major relief to Rajinikanth himself, for whom such an unqualified success was eluding probably since Enthiran. Those following Rajini and his choice of scripts and directors can feel his dilemma in charting a future course for himself considering his age,...
