Prabhu Deva’s ‘Pon Manikvel’ to release on OTT on November 19

Director AC Mugil Chelappan’s ‘Pon Manichavel’, starring actors Prabhu Deva and Nivetha Pethuaraj in lead roles, will release on Disney+ Hotstar on November 19. Releasing a trailer on Wednesday, the film’s producer Nemichand Jhabak tweeted, “Mark the date and be ready!”

Prabhu Deva, who has been waiting to hit the screens for some time now, will be seen playing the role of a cop for the first time.

Interestingly, this will be Prabhu Deva’s 50th film.

Originally scheduled to release in theaters on February 21, 2020, the film’s release was extended to March 6, 2020. However, the release had to be postponed indefinitely as a result of the pandemic.

Eventually, the team decided earlier this year that they would release the film on OTT instead of theatres. The exact release date has now been fixed as November 19.

The film, which has music by D. Imman, has cinematography by KG Venkatesh and editing by T. Sivanandeshwaran.
