The film is expected to release during summer in four different languages, including Tamil, Telugu, Hindi and Malayalam. However, some reports also suggest that the film will be released in English and Japanese, as Rajinikanth has a huge fan base in Japan.

Earlier, there were several reports stating that the film will release on the special day, 12.12.2012, coinciding with Rajinikanth's birthday.
