Fans have expressed their concerns on social media, who are eagerly waiting for the film’s OTT release. Earlier, it was scheduled to be released on OTT platform Netflix on September 20, but due to some reasons, the much-awaited OTT release was delayed. Several fans mentioned on social media that there might be numerous reasons why the OTT release has been delayed. A rumour was widely shared on social media platforms, which states that there are certain scenes in the film that may not align with guidelines of the OTT platforms. According to some media reports, there are some scenes in Thangalaan such as those involving the consumption of beef and the slaughtering of buffalo, which could offend some communities. As a precautionary measure, OTT platforms may be considering editing or removing the scenes to avoid any issues in future. The makers are yet to announce the exact reason for the delay.
