Vijay released a video statement in which he spoke against PETA. He also said that jallikattu was an important part of the identity of Tamilians.

Similarly, Suriya also released a statement. In it, he said, I am glad to see youngsters coming together, united by culture, history and identity. Organisations like PETA which rallied for the ban on jallikattu have lost their battle in the people�s court.
Dhanush tweeted saying I am proud of every Tamilian who has voiced his protest against the jallikattu ban. They would definitely emerge victorious.
Vikram released a statement that said, I want the traditional game to be brought back. There is no doubt that these protests will lead to victory.
