Multiple outlets report the film will screen again on June 19, timed to the birthday celebrations that fall on a Monday. The re-release is expected to give audiences a chance to watch the film on the weekend.
One report states the re-release will run across nearly 100 theatres in Tamil Nadu, with the screenings arranged by K Kennady. The outlets also describe “Mersal” as a blockbuster and note that the film features Vijay in a triple role. They further say the movie centers on the issue of healthcare corruption.
No additional changes to the film’s content are reported. The announcements focus on the date and the scale of the theatre re-screening in connection with Vijay’s upcoming birthday.
