Thala fans will be glad to know that a new film is on the way. And curiously, it does not have a title that starts with V – something that Ajith Kumar has been following religiously for some time. The movie, Good Bad Ugly is directed by Adhik Ravichandran and produced by Mythri Movie Makers.
The film, which sees Ajith in triple roles, promises to be a high-octane action thriller. It marks the first directorial collaboration between Adhik and Ajith, although they have previously worked together in Nerkonda Paarvai (2019) where Adhik shared screen space with Ajith. He is known to be a big Thala fan as well.
Good Bad Ugly is slated for a Pongal 2025 release, adding to the festive excitement for fans. And the latest info is that the film has set a new benchmark in the industry with its OTT rights reportedly being sold for a whopping amount of 95 crores to Netflix. Now, that’s really an impressive recovery much before the release of the film.
Meanwhile, the cast of Good Bad Ugly includes veteran actresses Simran and Meena, both of whom have a history of successful collaborations with Ajith Kumar. Additionally, Sreeleela, known for her role in Guntur Kaaram is set to make her Tamil debut in this film, making fans go even more crazy.
The technical crew is equally impressive, featuring Devi Sri Prasad for music, Abhinandan Ramanujam as the cinematographer, and Vijay Velukutty as the editor. The film’s action sequences, choreographed by Supreme Sundar and Kaloian Vodenicharov, promise to deliver edge-of-the-seat excitement.
The title, a nod to the classic Western, “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly,” hints at a stylish and morally complex narrative. With its record-breaking OTT deal and a powerhouse team, we can expect that it will break some records.
Let’s wait until the film’s release next year, until then, stay tuned for more updates on Chiubaba!
