Om: Chapter 1, the Dhanush-Mammootty action drama, is now set to hit screens on November 26, 2026 — according to trade reports. The film, initially slated for October 16, was pushed back to avoid clashing with Rajinikanth’s Jailer 2 and Suriya’s Scene, both releasing in late November. The new date comes from the Tamil Cinema Trade Guide, shared by Sridhar Pillai, though the makers haven’t confirmed it yet. No official statement has been issued. The film, described as an action drama with a two-part franchise plan, features Sai Pallavi, Sreeleela, and Naseeruddin Shah alongside its leads. Sai Abhyankar returns to compose music and score. Dhanush himself confirmed the delay, citing scheduling conflicts. Meanwhile, he’s already deep into his next project: D56, a violent actioner directed by Tamizharasan Pachamuthu, with Preity Mukundhan, Vadivelu, and SJ Suryah in key roles. That one’s aiming for a summer 2027 release. And then there’s Thamizh Murugan, Vetrimaaran’s next. Dhanush isn’t slowing down. But the real question? Whether the November 26 date sticks, or if another shift is coming. The red carpet’s still far off. But the momentum’s building.
