After the roaring success of the wedding anthem Jinguchaa, the firestorm that is Kamal Haasan’s Thug Life just turned up the heat with the drop of its second single — ‘Sugar Baby’, composed by none other than A.R. Rahman. And this one’s got a whole different flavour: it’s peppy, punchy, and dripping with swagger and sass, all thanks to the stunning screen presence of Trisha Krishnan, who delivers a dazzling dance performance that’s impossible to look away from.
The track is a high-voltage cocktail of rhythm and attitude, layered with infectious beats and a playful tone, signaling that Thug Life isn’t just about rebellion—it’s about revelry too. Trisha takes centre stage in this electrifying number, lighting up the screen with sizzling moves and unfiltered confidence, proving once again why she’s a bonafide powerhouse in Indian cinema.
While A.R. Rahman works his signature alchemy behind the scenes, lending the song its pulsating soul, the vocals are split across languages with a stellar lineup. The Tamil version features the voices of Alexandra Joy, Shuba, and Sarath Santosh, while the Hindi version brings together Nikhita Gandhi, Shuba, and Shashwat Singh, adding a cosmopolitan energy to the already infectious track.
Produced by Kamal Haasan’s Raaj Kamal Films International, Mani Ratnam’s Madras Talkies, R. Mahendran, and Siva Ananth, Thug Life boasts an ensemble cast of stellar performers. Kamal Haasan leads the film as Rangaraaya Sakthivel Naicker, alongside Silambarasan TR, Trisha Krishnan, Ashok Selvan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Joju George, Ali Fazal, Sanya Malhotra, and Rohit Saraf, among others. With Mani Ratnam at the helm and A.R. Rahman’s music, Thug Life is all set for a worldwide theatrical release on June 5, 2025. Brace yourself for an electrifying cinematic experience like never before!
