While the fans had gone agog over the release date and begun trending the movie name on social media, a section of them went perplexed on why Ajith has picked Pongal 2022 for the movie release.
The update of the movie release has come at a high time when the fans are storming the internet with the affirmations that the teaser of 'Valimai' will be released on Thursday.
Actor Jai is currently in an outing with director Susienthiran for the movie 'Shiva Shivaa'. Jai plays the lead role and he also made his debut as music director.
In July, the Madras High Court had come down hard on the actor for evading the tax and directed him to pay the tax, along with the fine amount of Rs 1 lakh.
It has been speculated that Valimai will clash with Rajini's 'Annaatthe' and Simbu's 'Maanaadu' during this Diwali as the Tamil fans await a triple treat.
As Diwali nears, the race gets intense between the stars and Kollywood is typical to witness a clash from top stars through the release of their movies on the same day.
