We were the first to announce the film Jallikattu 5-23 Jan 2017 when it was launched in Wall Street, New York last year. Directed by Santhosh, the film is about five characters with interesting backstories who come together for the famous protest against the ban on jallikattu. The film, whose shooting has been wrapped up, is now in the post-production stage. 

Bollywood director Anurag Kashyap, who is making his acting debut in Tamil cinema with Imaikkaa Nodigal, is also part of Jallikattu's team as an executive producer. Speaking about his inclusion, producer and wife of Santhosh, Nirupama says, "Anurag Kashyap has been a part of the team ever since the project commenced. His inputs were important in how we structured the film. His directorial experience also came in handy in the post-production stage which is taking longer than we anticipated as the materials we have are vast. We're hoping to finish the work in six weeks, following which an official announcement can be expected."
