"In times like these, shifting the release of a film comes with its own set of challenges.Our superstar, Rajinikanth sir, the man whom we have all admired and worshipped over the years has his film arriving on October 15th, just a day before ours. Out of immense respect for him, we have decided to postpone the release of our film, OM, to a later date," wrote Dhanush.
