Chennai: Vimal’s Mapla Singam movie is again postponed for release, the reason behind this delay for upcoming Tamil movie is as follows.

Tamil cinema is definitely facing a bad time these days to release movies on time. ‘Vaalu’ got released nearly after a span of 3 years. But even then lots of movies are shelved and are still struggling to get a release.

CS Amuthan’s ‘Irandavathu Padam’, Jayam Ravi’s ‘Boologam’ were few examples. Following these movies, Vimal’s ‘Mapla Singam’. The movie was confirmed for a release on September 17th as Rajini Murugan was delayed yet again.

The movie’s rights are with Escape Artists Motion Pictures Madhan. He is not a third grade producer and he holds some reputation. He has the rights for the movie and it was expected that he will release as planned. But the producer backed out at the last second.

From close sources to the producer we heard that the Satellite rights of ‘Mapla Singam’ is still unsold and releasing a movie without selling satellite rights might affect the producer was the real reason.
