Regarding Idly Kadai, the film's original release date was set to clash at the box office with Ajith Kumar’s Good Bad Ugly. However, the makers decided to reschedule the release to Diwali 2025, for reasons best known to them.

More recently, the sets of Idly Kadai caught fire at the Anupapatti village in the Theni district of Tamil Nadu. According to an ANI report, the set featured a narrow lane with shops lined on either side.

Although the exact cause of the massive fire has not been determined, thankfully, no casualties were reported from the site.

Marking Dhanush' fourth directorial venture, Idly Kadai also stars Nithya Menen, Arun Vijay, Shalini Pandey, Prakash Raj, Sathyaraj, Parthiban, and others in key roles. The film is produced under Dhanush's own production house, Wunderbar Films.

In addition to Idly Kadai, Dhanush is also gearing up for another big-ticket release with Kuberaa. The social thriller features a stellar cast, including Nagarjuna Akkineni and Rashmika Mandanna.

The first single from Kuberaa, titled Poyivaa Nanba, was recently released, showcasing Dhanush's vocals after a long time. It quickly became a hit and chartbuster.
