The first look and teaser of Thalaivi were released in November last year. The film was scheduled to release on 26 June 2020, but got delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Ranaut is said to have learnt Tamil and Bharatanatyam dance form for her role as Jayalalithaa. The film will also see Arvind Swamy as MGR, Priyamani as Sasikala, and Prakash Raj as Karunanidhi.

In the climax, Kangana will be seen stepping out of the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly as a crowd awaits her.

The film will be released first in theatres and then move to the OTT platforms.

Kangana has also started her dance rehearsals for Thalaivi. Here's the post confirming the same.
