Description: The Diwali week is a highly anticipated time for fans of Indian television and movies. This year, several new titles such as Jai Bhim, Gully Rowdy, Sridevi Soda Center, and Sooryavanshi are set to premiere. One of the most awaited releases is the Tamil-language comedy-drama ‘MGR Magan.’ After multiple delays, it has been officially announced that the film will hit theaters on November 26.
Directed by debutant KV Kathirvelu, who previously worked as an assistant to Sundar C, ‘MGR Magan’ stars Sasikumar and Nikki Galrani in lead roles. Following the success of ‘Udanpirappe,’ Sasikumar returns with this rural drama, which is also set for an OTT release on Disney+ Hotstar on November 4, coinciding with the Diwali festivities.
The film faces stiff competition from other Tamil releases like ‘Annaatthe,’ ‘Enemy,’ and ‘Vaa Deal,’ which are also set to hit theaters. Meanwhile, Suriya’s ‘Jai Bhim,’ already available on Amazon Prime Video, has been receiving overwhelming responses from audiences. It remains to be seen how ‘MGR Magan’ will fare amidst this competition.
Produced by Siddharth Ravipati and Senthil Kumar under Screen Scene Media Entertainment, the film features an ensemble cast including Sathyaraj, Mrinalini Ravi, Samuthirakani, Saranya Ponvannan, Nandita Swetha, Singampuli, Pala Karuppiah, Motta Rajendran, and Ramachandran. The exact streaming time for ‘MGR Magan’ on Disney+ Hotstar is yet to be confirmed, but rumors suggest it will be available by Thursday noon.
