Suriya's 'Soorarai Pottru' to not release this year?

One of the highly-anticipated Tamil films of Suriya, Soorarai Pottru's release date has been reportedly postponed to 2021. Ardent Kollywood fans have been awaiting the release of the film ever since its shoot went on floors, but sadly the wait does not seem to end anytime soon. It has been reported that the makers of the film have decided to push the release date of the Suriya starrer to January 2021. 

According to an online portal, the makers have been contemplating releasing the trailer of the film in December this year and will commence the promotions a month before its release date. However, no official confirmation about the same has been made as of yet. If the grapevines are to be believed, although the film has been scheduled next year, Soorarai Pottru's release date might get preponed if the on-going COVID-19 crisis goes back to normalcy.
