Reports also mention that the film will be shot extensively in Serbia and a filming schedule has already been finalized.

With ‘Thug Life’, Haasan and Ratnam will be collaborating after 34 years. The last time they worked together was on ‘Nayakan’ in 1987 which turned out to be India’s entry to the Academy Awards.
