It is well known that `Thug Life`, which was released amidst huge expectations, failed miserably in meeting those expectations. With this, director mani ratnam apologized to the audience. He said that he could not say anything else from his side except an apology. This is probably the first time that he has apologized to the audience like this. He has made many films as a director till now. There are many failures along with successes. And did mani ratnam apologize every time he failed? No. That scene happened only in the case of 'Thug Life'. There is a special reason for that. The expectations of the audience on `Thug Life` became the reason for that. When the announcement of Thug Life was made in the Kamal Haasan-Maniratnam combination, the expectations suddenly reached peaks. After working together for almost 37 years, the expectations started in this range.
 At that time, 'Nayagan' was a great success. With this, everyone expected that a movie of that range would come. But they tested the audience by giving an unexpected movie. Kamal-Maniratnam faced a situation where they were wondering why they made such a bad movie. All the audience criticized. kamal haasan came forward with his faith in Mani Ratnam. Mani Sir could not maintain that faith. Kamal's fans were very disappointed and hurt in this matter. They could not criticize directly due to their respect for mani ratnam, otherwise, it is known what level of criticism is on social media today. All of them came to Mani Ratnam's attention. Mani Ratnam's rapport with kamal haasan in particular is very great. Kamal has a special fan base. mani ratnam, who keeps all this in mind, came forward with an apology. Sometimes it is natural for directors-heroes to face such a situation. When a movie flops, some heroes also come forward to apologize to the media.
