Dhanush has postponed the release of his film OM in order to avoid scheduling conflicts with Rajinikanth's Jailer 2 and Suriya's Scene. The original release date of October 16 for OM clashed with Jailer 2's October 15 release, and the film was also competing for the Diwali window with Scene.

The actor clarified that OM will not be released during the Diwali weekend as Suriya's film had already secured that date. A new release date for OM will be announced soon. Dhanush's announcement follows his recent National Award recognition, adding another significant moment to his career. The cast of OM includes Dhanush, Mammootty, Sai Pallavi, Sreeleela, Naseeruddin Shah, and Indrans, with the film directed by Rajkumar Periasamy.
