Produced by BTG Universal, their third venture, “Retta Thala” is a stylish action film starring leading actor Arun Vijay and directed by Maan Karate director Krish Thirukumaran.
With the film scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on December 25, 2025, a grand pre-release event was held in the presence of the film crew, film personalities, and media representatives.
At the event…
Director A.R. Murugadoss said:
“Thirukumaran is my assistant director. He worked on Ghajini and Thuppakki; he is someone I am very fond of. He is very talented, and this film’s title is mine. He knew that I would definitely give it to him when he asked. It perfectly suits this film. I request him to direct a film under my production soon. Arun Vijay looks the same, still so young even after 15 years. It’s a huge surprise. There is no doubt that he is a hard worker. I believe he will achieve even greater heights in Tamil cinema. All the actors and technicians who worked on the film have put in tremendous effort, and I believe it will be a great success. Congratulations to everyone. Thank you.”
Director Muthaiah said:
“I watched the trailer of ‘Retta Thala,’ and it was good. I have known director Thiru for a long time. We have been friends since our days as assistant directors. This film will surely be a big success for both him and Arun Vijay. Congratulations to the entire film crew. Thank you.”
Director Kishore Muthuraman said:
“I heard many reports that director Murugadoss was going to direct a film with Ajith Sir in the lead role with this title. Today, director Thiru has directed a film with Arun Vijay under the same name.” The film’s trailer is out globally, and it will definitely be a huge success. My best wishes to everyone. Thank you.
Director Balaji Venugopal said:
I really liked this title. Arun has worked very hard for this film. He has acted with great dedication in playing two characters. This film will reward your patience with a great success. Director Thiru’s films are all unique and of a different standard. This film is also like that. For many years, songs haven’t been shot abroad. The song in this film is an added special feature. Some films release at the end of the year and make you forget all the films released that year; this film will be like that. Best wishes for the film’s success.
Director Gokul said:
This film must definitely be a success, because only then will the producer give me a film. So, my best wishes to the producer for the film’s success. Arun Vijay is a hard worker, and this film is a testament to his hard work. I also wish to make a film with him, and I hope we will definitely collaborate. All the songs were good. The film is technically excellent. I believe it will definitely meet expectations. May this film bring success to everyone. Best wishes to all.
Director ARK Saravanan said:
I know Arun Vijay sir well. I consider him a role model for many reasons. His effort still amazes me. There is no doubt that he will reach great heights. The heroine Siddhi is an actress with good character expressions. That is clearly visible on screen. The songs and visuals have doubled the expectations. I hope everyone will like this film. Best wishes to all. Thank you.
Director Arivazhagan said:
It is a great fortune for an assistant director to direct a film under his director’s production, and that happened for both me and Thiru. Thiru and I have been friends for a long time. This is definitely a happy moment for me. I have heard about Arun Vijay sir through many friends, and I will make another film with him. This film should give the producer a huge success. Congratulations to producer Bobby sir. He should produce more and more films. Thank you. Congratulations to all the technicians and actors who worked on the film. Thank you.
Speaking on behalf of Drumstick Productions, Vivek said…
I know producer Bobby anna very well. We belong to the same family. He will definitely get a huge success through this film. Arun Vijay is like an elder brother to me; he has given his complete effort to this film. Congratulations to the entire film crew. I believe this trailer will definitely impress everyone, and I wish the film great success. Thank you.
Actress Siddhi Idnani said…
I think I became a little relaxed after my first film. That…
I let go of that thought before starting this film. From now on, I will work with a sense of exploration. I have a very important role in this film. That’s what has brought me here. I hope you will definitely like it. Thanks to director Thiru sir for giving me this opportunity. Thanks also to Arun Vijay sir. Working with him was a great experience for me. Everyone who worked on this film worked happily. I am also learning Tamil. I hope to learn it completely in a few more days. I hope this film will be a good entertainer for everyone. Thank you.
The film’s editor, Antony, said:
It was a pleasure working with Thiru on this film. Thanks to my assistant Veronica, who was very helpful to me in the editing process. She has worked entirely on the editing of this film, and I request that you all extend your support to her as well. Thank you.
Director Girish Thirukumaran said:
Thanks to all the directors who attended the event, and thanks to all the assistant directors who worked with me on this film. Thanks to producer Bobby sir and Arun Vijay sir for giving me this opportunity. Please watch the film in theaters; this film will give everyone a great cinematic experience. Thank you.
Actor Arun Vijay said:
I thought Thiru sir would speak at length, but he spoke briefly, saying that the film will speak for itself. The story of this film greatly impressed me. It was also challenging for me. I decided then and there that I wanted to act in this film. The main pillar of this film was editor Antony sir. The film was very fast-paced, and he has edited it perfectly. The songs and scenes in the film are of high quality. Actress Siddhi Idnani has given her full effort. I hope Tamil cinema will give her a great welcome after this. This film has many action sequences. They have turned out very well. The climax scene will definitely impress everyone. I am very happy that Dhanush sir has sung a song. We have all put in a lot of effort for this film, and I am confident that you will all like it. Thank you.
This film, a completely stylish entertainer blending action and romance, features Arun Vijay in a dual role, portraying two distinct characters with impressive performances.
In this film, starring Arun Vijay as the protagonist, Siddhi Idnani plays the female lead. Tanya Ravichandran, Harish Peradi, Yogesh Swami, John Vijay, and Balaji Murugadoss have also acted in important roles.
Produced by BTG Universal, this film is the third venture of Mr. Bobby Balachandran, a global giant in the software industry, including data privacy and cyber forensics. He has produced this film on a grand scale, making it the most ambitious project in Arun Vijay’s career.
The film is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on December 25, 2025.
