“O Maara” from Thug Life Drops: A Blazing New Anthem for Simbu’s Gangster Swagger

The third single from Thug Life is finally here—and it’s nothing short of electric.

As the buzz continues to build for Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam’s much-anticipated gangster saga Thug Life, the film’s musical rollout is hitting all the right notes. After the massive success of the trailer and two chart-topping singles, the team has just dropped the latest lyrical video — “O Maara” — and it’s an absolute banger.

A.R. Rahman Turns Up the Heat

Composed by the legendary A.R. Rahman, “O Maara” is a sonic rollercoaster. It begins with a soft, hypnotic rhythm before exploding into a pulsing, high-energy beat that screams rebellion. The track mirrors the fiery, free-spirited nature of Simbu’s character in the film — a gangster who plays by his own rules.

Adithya RK’s powerful vocals give the song its heart, while Rakendu Mouli injects it with grit and swagger through a scorching rap segment that’s packed with attitude. Their combo is raw, punchy, and unforgettable.

Lyrics That Hit Different

Anantha Sriram’s pen brings it all together with fresh, fierce lyrics that feel tailor-made for the bold world of Thug Life. There’s a youthful defiance in the words — a sense of thrill, chaos, and confidence that defines the film’s vibe.

Powerhouse Collaboration Behind the Scenes

Thug Life is backed by the dream team of Raaj Kamal Films International, Madras Talkies, and Red Giant Movies. With Kamal Haasan leading the charge and Simbu bringing fire to the screen, expectations are sky-high.

The movie is set for a grand theatrical release on June 5, with distribution in Telugu states being handled by N Sudhakar Reddy of Sreshth Movies.

With every update, Thug Life only gets hotter — and “O Maara” just cranked the dial up another notch.
