South Star Ajith Kumar‘s much anticipated film ‘Valimai‘ has been the talk of the town ever since its announcement. The Ajith starrer’s post production work is on in full swing, however, the makers are yet to reveal the release date. The makers released a birthday special poster of actor Karthikeya today, who plays the antagonist in the film. The latest buzz is that the makers have finalized the OTT deal for the film with Zee Studios. The corporate giant has bagged the film’s theatrical rights, satellite rights and post-theatrical digital rights of the Tamil version, though it is yet not clear if the Telugu version is also part of this deal. So ‘Valimai’ will officially stream on digital platform Zee5, post its theatrical run.
Fans are also going crazy waiting for an official update regarding the film. The request for a teaser has been trending for quite some time with the hashtag, #ValimaiTeaser. It was being speculated that just as the previous updates came without prior notice this one too, would follow suit, but the makers revealed that the teaser would be out this week, so we can expect it very soon. It is also being said that a behind-the-scenes or making-of-the-movie clip may be released before the teaser, so fans are surely in for a treat!
Written and directed by H Vinoth, ‘Valimai’ stars Ajith in the lead, along with Huma Qureshi and Kartikeya in pivotal roles. Produced by Zee Studios and Boney Kapoor under his banner ‘Bayview Projects’, the movie also stars Pearle Maaney, comedian Yogi Babu and veteran actress Sumithra. ‘Valimai’ is a high-octane spy thriller, apparently set in the backdrop of the car-racing world and will see actor Kartikeya as the antagonist. The final schedule in Russia was a much-talked-about one, being filled with some extensive action sequences and bike stunts.
Incidentally, ‘Valimai’ is Ajith’s second collaboration with producer Boney Kapoor, after 2019’s ‘Nerkonda Paarvai’, (also directed by Vinoth) a remake of the hit Bollywood film ‘Pink’, headlined by Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu. Actor Ajith is confident that ‘Valimai’ will be a great festive treat for fans and wants to release the film for Diwali this year. The makers too had earlier planned to do so, but could be in two minds now, considering two big releases, Rajnikanth’s ‘Annaatthe’ and Silambarasan’s ‘Maanaadu’ have already locked dates for Diwali on 4th November. Though it is highly likely, that a release date could come unannounced along with the teaser.
