Superstar Rajnikanth's Kaala is one of the most awaited films in Tamil this year. The film was scheduled for release on April 27. The makers are planning to postpone the release of the film to a later date due to the ongoing strike in the Tamil Film Industry. Kaala is likely to hit the screens in June. While there is a buzz that Kaala may release on June 15 for Eid, an official announcement is awaited on the new release date.

There has been no new Tamil releases from March 1. There are more than 30 films which are lined up for release waiting for the strike to end. With TFPC having signed deals with new digital service providers like Aerox, K Sera Sera and Multiplex Global, we hope the strike will be called off soon.

The film has completed the censor formalities and has been given U/A certificate. Kaala directed by Pa. Ranjith's has huge expectations following the blockbuster hit of Kabali. Santhosh Narayanan has scored the music.  Nana Patekar, Eswari Rao, Huma Qureshi, Samuthirakani, Sampath Raj, Sayaji Shinde, Anjali Patil play pivotal roles in the film. Kaala is produced by Dhanush's Wunderbar Films and will be distributed by Lyca Productions.
