 Was set to be released in April 14th 2007, was postponed to May and  finally to June 15th 2007. The continuous change in the release date  of the film has caused a confusion in the Tamil film industry. Many  other big films stayed away because they dont want to clash with  Shivaji, in the end there were no big release for the months of  April and May. For the first time in the history of Tamil commercial  cinema since the 50s there was no big summer release.
