Thuglife | An Open Letter from a Kannadiga | Not a Film Review | Kamal Haasan | Mani Ratnam | Rahman

Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam’s film Thug Life released worldwide on June 5, 2025. But not in Karnataka. Theatres here remained silent—not because of censorship, but because of one controversial statement by Kamal Haasan about the Kannada language, and more importantly, his refusal to apologize.

This video is not a review. It's an open letter—an honest, emotional response from a Kannada film lover and reviewer who couldn’t watch the film in his own state.

We explore how ego, not art, became the headline. We also reflect on the missed opportunity for a cinematic celebration that could have united fans across languages.

If you believe cinema should heal, not divide, watch till the end.
