Last month, it was announced that the first look poster and the promotions of Ajith starrer ‘Valimai’ will be initiated from May 1, which happens to be the star’s 50th birthday. Fans, who have been impatiently waiting for an update for several months, were highly excited about the first look release. However, much to their disappointment, the makers have decided to postpone it. They have taken the decision in view of the impact of the second wave of Covid-19 across the country.

‘Valimai’ is one of the most hyped projects in Tamil cinema in recent years. H Vinoth of ‘Theeran’ fame is directing then film. It is said to be a cop thriller made on a lavish budget. Huma Qureshi, Kartikeya Gummakonda, Yogi Babu and Achyuth Kumar are part of the film’s cast.

Though it has been well over a year since shoot commenced, the team had to face several hurdles mainly due to the pandemic. In the meanwhile, fans were also constantly expressing their displeasure in not sharing updates with them regularly. #ValimaiUpdate has been a regularly trending hashtag in Twitter and fans often storm the social media handles of the film’s cast and crew members pestering them for updates.

After this relentless behaviour from fans broadened outside the walls of social media, Ajith was forced to come out with a strong-worded statement urging them not to indulge in such acts. He expressed his disappointment and asked his fans to maintain dignity and discipline in public.
