Actor Rana Daggubati is another star from today supported the protests for bull taming sport of Jalikattu in Tamil Nadu, saying it is amazing to see people come together to support their tradition.
"Jallikattu is a part of Tamil Nadu's culture. The protest that is going on there in support of Jallikattu at the Chennai's Marina beach is very touching. It is in the right direction," Rana said at a press conference in the second day of Jaipur Literature Festival here.
The "Bahubali" actor said that the people of Tamil Nadu are united in support of their tradition.
The state is witnessing widespread protests again a ban on Jallikattu and the Tamil film industry has come out in support of the protesters.
Daggubati along with the film producer SS Rajamouli were present in JLF to promote the second installment of the film.
Rajamouli said part two is not the end of "Babubali" and people should hope for part three as well.
"We just cannot stop with part two. We have just finished it. We want to continue with its next part and hopefully there will be Babubali-3," Rajamouli said.
He said "Bahubali" will bring its actors fame similar to "Sholay".
"'Sholay' became an epic after 15-20 years of its release and people talk about it. The kind of fame its makers and actors got, I hope the same will be for us," he said.
