We definitely love Vijay’s confidence in the theatrical performance of the film and it just makes fans more eager to see him in the film.
The movie helmed by Puri Jagannadh was earlier announced to release in theatres on September 9. After the second wave, the makers of the film are yet to confirm if they hope to stick to the release date.
Well, safe to see that we’ll be meeting Liger in theatres. The movie will be releasing in five Indian languages, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi.
