Peaceful protests against the ban of Jallikattu is currently happening at various places in Tamil Nadu, including Marina beach in Chennai and Alanganallur. Celebrities including Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Suriya, G.V.Prakash, Arya, director Ameer, Sivakarthikeyan have been extending their support to this sport. Sibiraj is the latest to join this list.
The Jackson Durai actor posted, "The AWBI and many animal right NGOs have gone a long way in bringing down cruelty against animals in our country! For example I have heard many incidents of animals and humans being hurt/killed during film shoots in the 90's and before that.
Thanks to the AWBI no such thing would happen today because there are strict rules and guidelines to be followed by film makers to ensure that animals are not hurt or ill treated.
The same way Jallikattu can also be regularised to ensure the safety of man and animal!Banning a traditional sport is not the solution!
