As first reported by Gulte, Suriya has finally decided to postpone his film S3 – Yamudu 3. Considering special conditions in Tamil Nadu over Jallikattu sport, Suriya and producer Gnanvel Raja have postponed the film. The producer of the film’s Telugu version, Malkapuram Sivakumar to confirmed the development.The Telugu-Tamil bilingual was supposed to release on Jan 26.
However, this is not first time the film is getting postponed. It was already postponed twice. The action drama starring Suriya, Anushka Shetty and Shruti Haasan was initially planned for Dec 16th release. Later, the film was pushed to Dec 23 release but after much thought it’s postponed to Jan 26th. But due to the ongoing protests in Tamil Nadu for lifting ban on Jallikattu permanently, there’s a turmoil and keeping these in mind, Suriya has come forward to defer the third installment of Singam franchise where he will be seen as DCP Narasimha.
The fresh release date of film would be announced once the Jallikattu issue settles down and peace prevails, a source close to the star told Gulte.
Initially, Venkatesh’s Guru was also planned for Jan 25 release, but for unknown reasons it has been pushed to April. With two big films being postponed and there’re no other releases lined up, looks like it’s going to be dull week for Tollywood unless until any other film makes it to the screens.
After Sankranti releases – Khaidi No.150, Gautamiputra Satakarni and Shatamanam Bhavati, no other film has seen the light of the day as all three were having a glorious run at the BO. Trade is expecting that no other releases for Republic Day may further boost the numbers of the Sankranti films. Let’s see what’s in store.
