Every Thalaivar movie holds anxiety and the pre-release wait is almost always impatient. With 'Kochadaiyaan', the anticipation is only more, ever since the director Soundarya Rajini announced that it is the country's first performance capture photorealistic movie. Everybody is eager to see it on screen and tune into the ebullient tunes of AR Rahman. As for the film, the team is busy in the post-production work, the shooting having gotten over long back. Deepika Padukone, Aadhi, Sarathkumar, Shobana, Jackie Shroff and Nassar are part of the cast crew.

Sadly, confusion over the date of release still prevails. Earlier, distributors in the USA were informed that the release will be on April 5th, this year. Now, a few big distributors say that it will be on April 13th, while some claim we will have to painfully wait till June. But there is no official declaration yet in this regard. Given that the post-production work is also reaching its tail end, we can expect to receive confirmation about the release date, very soon.
