Ranaut has clarified any such speculations claiming that the "movie mafia" is doing "fake propaganda" and people should just "ignore" them. Saying that the film will release theatrically first, the Queen actor took to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday and clarified, “Announcement – Thalaivi digital rights are with Amazon (Tamil) and Netflix (Hindi) none of them can individually stream the movie before theatres release."

Thalaivi, the biographical film about the life of former Tamil Nadu chief minister late J Jayalalithaa, was scheduled to release theatrically on April 23. Now, due to the surge in COVID-19 cases in India, the release date has been postponed.

Explaining that Thalaivi deserves a theatrical release, Ranaut mentioned that the makers are determined to release it first in theatres and then it can be available on OTT platforms. She further warned that strict action will be taken against any media publications spreading fake rumours or writing wrong information about the film.
