Another special highlight of the film is the musical score, which is composed by the legendary AR Rahman.
The film is touted as a gangster drama. 'Thug Life' is directed by Mani Ratnam and co-produced by Raaj Kamal Films International and Madras Talkies. The film stars Jayam Ravi, Trisha, Abhirami, and Nasser. The film's music was composed by AR Rahman.
Last year, ahead of Kamal Haasan's birthday, the makers unveiled the title of the film. On Instagram, the film's production house Raaj Kamal Films International treated fans to an intriguing title announcement video.
They captioned the post, "A NEW NAME, A NEW HISTORY!#ThugLife. #KH234 #Ulaganayagan #KamalHaasan #HBDKamalSir #HBDUlaganayagan."
The video features Kamal Haasan in a never-seen-before avatar. In the video, he can be seen standing in a bleak, hazy landscape while wrapped in a rough cloak. He is being chased by few men and they could be seen approaching him. Then, camera pans across Kamal's face, revealing his full look included a heavy moustache and beard.
After working in 'Nayakan', Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam are reuniting for this film.
