Marathi
singer Vaishali Samant’s recent feat—25 years after singing Yaro yarodi in

movie, Thug Life. Tamil song credits the singers are Vaishali
Samant, Shakthisree Gopalan & Adithya RK.The Hindi version of the song
brings fresh vocal firepower to .. Sukhwinder Singh, Ronkini Gupta,
Aashima Mahajan, and Vaisha li Samant...
It comes as another hit for Samant after Aaya re toofan from Chhaava earlier
this year. She reveals that it was during the recording of the Chhaava number,
also composed by Rahman, that the maestro suggested she sing Tamil songs again.
Months later, she was in the studio, singing Jinguchaa. To Samant, working with
Rahman is like “enrolling into a university.” “Every language carries its own
cultural charm. With Jinguchaa, it was a challenge to pronounce the words like
a Tamil native. In a day and age where voices come and go, Rahman sir adds the
punch that makes a song stand the test of time. I hope we can continue working
together for the next 25 years too.”
Thudarum
Ending explained l What is Vijay Sethupathi role in it ?
Mohanlal’s character,
Shanmughan alias Benz, was a stunt artist, and Vijay
Sethupathi’s character, Anbu, was his colleague. Unfortunately, during
an accident, in a bid to save Benz, Anbu dies. Shobana’s character, Lalitha,
was Anbu’s wife, and together they had a 4-year-old son named Pavi, who
eventually grows up and is portrayed by Thomas Mathew.
Following
Anbu’s death, Benz marries Lalitha, taking on the role of Pavi’s stepfather.
The family chooses to leave Tamil Nadu, since the stunt artists involved in the
accident that claimed Anbu’s life were blacklisted. As a farewell gesture,
Benz’s employer, the fight master, gifts him a black Ambassador car, which Benz
continues to use for his work. Eventually, Benz and Lalitha welcome a daughter
into their family.
Decades have
passed, and Pavi is now in his college years. He is in love with Mary George,
portrayed by Aarsha Chandini Baiju, but her father, George, played by Prakash
Varma, is against this relationship.
A minor
incident changes Benz’s life forever. The Ambassador was seized during a
routine vehicle check conducted by the police for transporting narcotics. Benz
wasn’t transporting narcotics; he had given the vehicle to a service center,
and the mechanic, while in his custody, transported the narcotics. When Sub
Inspector Benny apprehended him in a bid to escape, the mechanic beat him up.
As a result, the vehicle was seized and held at the police station, and Benz
was informed that the vehicle would only be released once the police got their
hands on the mechanic.
One night,
Pavi is taken to the police station, where George is the station house officer.
There, he and his subordinate, Sub Inspector Benny, portrayed by Binu Pappu,
kill Pavi for being in love with George’s daughter and threatening to reveal
some of George’s secrets. Afterwards, the dead body is stuffed into Benz’s
black Ambassador car.
That same
night, after Pavi’s tragic death, Benz visits the police station to ask George
to release his vehicle. George agrees and instructs Benny to return the car.
However, Benny initially hesitates, as George isn’t aware of the body still
being inside. Benny then informs George that the body is still in the car.
Later, George decides to hire Benz’s Ambassador as a taxi to attend a
colleague’s sister’s pre-marriage party.
Upon
arriving at the event location, Benny takes the key to the Ambassador from
Benz. After some time, Benz is instructed to drive them to a remote area deep
in the jungle. Initially hesitant, Benz reluctantly agrees. During the journey,
tension builds between him, George, and Benny. The colleague, whose sister was
about to get married the following day, is also present in the vehicle.
As they
drive, George reveals a chilling information: there is a dead body in the car,
that of a young man who had been involved with the bride. They killed him
because he had compromising videos of her.
With no
choice but to comply, Benz follows their orders. After disposing of the body,
he returns home. When he checks the boot of the car, he finds blood and a
wallet. In his panic, as the dog barks, he accidentally throws the wallet into
the bushes. Distraught, he forgets about it and cleans the car, trying to
return to his normal life.
Benz soon
realizes that his son is missing, and an investigation begins, raising
suspicions in his mind—especially when he notices his son’s Pulsar bike at the
police station. That night, Benz decides to search for the wallet he had thrown
into the bushes. When he retrieves it, he is shocked to find that it belongs to
his son.
At the same
time, a landslide occurs at the location where the body was disposed of. During
the rescue operation, the body is discovered by the rescue team. It is quickly
identified as Benz’s son.
George and
Benny concoct a false story, claiming that Benz was behind the murder. They
accuse the siblings of having an incestuous relationship, suggesting that Benz
killed his son because of it. To back up their fabricated story, the police
violently beat both Lalitha and her daughter in an attempt to force them to
confess to these false allegations.
Meanwhile,
Benz kidnaps the police officer who was present when he, George, and Benny
disposed of the body. The officer claims he had no knowledge of the murder and
was only asked to guide them through the jungle. Benz is eventually captured by
the police, but George, with the help of Benny and officers from the armed
reserve camp, plans to have Benz killed. The plot fails, and Benz manages to
kill Benny and escape from the police.
As George
persistently torments Benz’s family in an attempt to capture him, Benz reaches
out to George. He tells George to come to his house, where his daughter, Mary,
is home alone. When they meet, a struggle ensues, resulting in Benz killing
George. Mary witnesses the entire ordeal.
Later, Mary
visits Lalitha and her daughter during Pavi’s funeral. As the story reaches its
conclusion, Benz is shown being escorted to court in handcuffs. Outside the
courthouse, Mary stands with Benz’s family, fulfilling the promise Pavi made
earlier, Mary is now considered part of Benz’s family. A reporter approaches
Benz, asking if he killed his son. Benz answers truthfully.
