Sources say that the controversial Vijay-starrer Thalaivaa has been cleared for the release, if the distributors and exhibitors are able to make a deal. Talks are on between the producers and distributors; a release date is expected to be announced soon. However the main problem now is  with the multiplexes where every week's schedule is prepared on Tuesday.

Sources from Vendhar Movies say that the film will hit screens on August 20.
