Puli Murugan Official Teaser Crosses 10 Lakhs Views On YouTube!
The official teaser of Mohanlal starring upcoming action thriller Puli Murugan, had gone viral in the social media. It is undoubtedly one of the most celebrated teasers of Malayalam movie industry. Puli Murugan official teaser recently crossed 10 Lakhs views on YouTube when it completes one month of release. It is the first Malayalam teaser to cover 10 Lakhs views within such a short period. Earlier, Puli Murugan teaser has broken the record created by the official trailer of recently released Dulquer Salmaan movie Kali, by covering 5 Lakhs views on YouTube, within the first 24 hours of release. The Vysakh-directed movie, which stars Mohanlal in the title role Murugan, is the most anticipated Malayalam project of the year.

Puli Murugan Will Not Release Anytime Soon
Here is a disappointing news for the audiences, who are eagerly waiting for Puli Murugan. If the reports are to be true, the Mohanlal starring action thriller will not release anytime soon. Some believable sources suggest that Puli Murugan has been postponed indefinitely, due to some technical issues. The releases of Mohanlal's Oppam and Janatha Garage is also a reason for the delay. Puli Murugan, which was originally planned for Christmas 2015, is getting postponed for the 6th time. The movie was last slated to release on August 12, but is postponed again due to the release of Janatha Garage. The movie will not hit the theatres for Onam 2016, as Mohanlal-Priyadarshan team's much-anticipated thriller Oppam is slated as an Onam release. There are chances for the movie to be released for Navarathri. However, the team is yet to finalise it, as Puli Murugan has been planned as a worldwide release with about 3000 centres. Sadly, the continuous change in release dates is affecting the movie negatively. The industry feels that Mohanlal and the crew are not confident about Puli Murugan, and that is why they are trying to avoid a clash with other big releases. We are waiting for the team to clarify the reason for the delay.
