Jallikattu protests to not affect Suriya’s Singam 3 release; confirms producers

PETA is also protesting against Jallikattu and has accused Suriya of using the controversy to promote his film, Singam 3.

The Jallikattu protests have gained momentum ever since Tamil actors have extended their support to it. Superstar Suriya has also vehemently extended his support to the cause that believes the ban on the practise must be lifted since it hampers their cultural beliefs. The massive state-wide protests created a tension like situation in the city and fans of Suriya are fearing that his upcoming film Singam 3 will hit the silver screens or not. The most awaited actioner is slated for release on Januray 26 and with Jalikattu protests taking fierce shape, the chances of the release getting postponed are likely to be high.

But the makers come forward to clear the air and rubbish all rumours around the film’s release date. They took to twitter to confirm that Suriya’s Singam 3 will released on the promised date. (ALSO READ: Jallikattu row: Kamal Haasan tweets video of cop setting auto on fire! Questions authorities)
