The release of the highly anticipated Rajinikanth-starrer Dharman may be rescheduled to avoid a festive clash at the box office. While the film was initially slated to premiere during the Pongal 2027 window, reports suggest that production teams are coordinating to move the launch to April 30, 2027. The decision comes as the team behind Kamal Haasan's Indian 3 is reportedly planning a theatrical release during the same festive period.
Indian 3, which serves as a direct follow-up to Indian 2, is currently in its final stages of production. According to reports, while post-production for portions filmed alongside the second installment is complete, the team requires approximately 15 days of additional shooting for new sequences. The film is expected to delve into the backstory of the character Senapathy, portrayed by Kamal Haasan, and is slated to introduce his father, Veerasekaran Balram, in a period drama format.
In Dharman, directed by Ashwath Marimuthu, Rajinikanth is set to play a doctor who confronts criminals. Promotional materials have already offered a glimpse of the character, featuring a poster where the actor is seen inside an operation theatre with a scalpel. Although official confirmation regarding the revised release date for Dharman is still pending, the cast is expected to include actors such as Simran Bagga, Yogi Babu, and Raashii Khanna, with speculation suggesting that Ram Pothineni may portray the primary antagonist.
The production of Dharman is notable as it is co-produced by Kamal Haasan under his banner. Despite the current scheduling adjustments, neither the makers of Dharman nor the team behind Indian 3 have provided an official update on their final theatrical release dates.
