Vijay Sethupathi’s latest film, Ace, has quickly transitioned from theaters to digital platforms, landing on Amazon Prime Video just weeks after its worldwide release on May 23, 2025.
The film, a blend of romance and crime comedy, generated significant buzz due to Sethupathi’s star power and its genre-mixing premise.
However, despite high expectations, Ace received mixed reviews and struggled to make a significant impact at the box office. The early OTT release is now seen as an opportunity for the film to reach a wider audience and potentially find greater appreciation among streaming viewers.
Ace stars Vijay Sethupathi alongside Rukmini Vasanth, known for her role in ‘Sapta Sagaradaache Ello.’ The supporting cast features popular names like Yogi Babu, BS Avinash, Babloo Prithiveeraj, Divya Pillai, and Ramesh Thilak.
The story follows Kannan, a man who moves abroad seeking a fresh start and better prospects. However, his life takes a dangerous turn when a heist goes awry, plunging him into the treacherous world of organized crime and betrayal. As Kannan navigates this perilous underworld, he must depend on his instincts and quick thinking to survive in an environment where trust is rare and threats are ever-present.
With its digital release, Ace is poised for a second chance to captivate audiences.
