*Bottom Line*: After years of financial disputes, _Dhruva Natchathiram_ release is now close. GVM gave settlement plan today. Two investors ready to pay. If HC passes favourable order tomorrow, film likely to hit screens by May-end or June 2026.

This is a major update for Vikram fans – the film has been stuck since 2017 due to producer/financial issues.
