Investor finalised to get Dhruva Natchathiram released before Oct. 31: Gautham Vasudev Menon tells Madras High Court
Justice Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy extends the time limit for releasing the movie after directing Mr. Menon to submit records to prove payment of ₹10.57 crore to actor Vikram
Film director, producer, and actor Gautham Vasudev Menon has informed the Madras High Court of having identified an investor to get the much-awaited ‘Chiyan’ Vikram-starrer Dhruva Natchathiram released before October 31, 2026, in as many screens as possible.
Justice Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy has recorded the submission made by the film production firm Kondaduvom Entertainment, represented by its director Mr. Menon, in its application seeking an extension of time, and granted it time until October 31 to release the movie.
In April 2026, the judge had cleared the decks for the release of the movie, which was mired in a financial dispute, and had granted time until June 15, 2026, for Mr. Menon to get the movie released after identifying an investor, so that the dues to all creditors could be settled.
