Interesting facts

Si3 is a 2017 Indian Tamil-language action film written and directed by Hari. Produced by Studio Green and Aadnah Arts, and distributed by Pen Studios, it is a sequel to Singam II (2013) and the third instalment in the Singam film series. The film stars Suriya reprising his role as S. Duraisingam, alongside Anushka Shetty, Shruti Haasan, Thakur Anoop Singh, Robo Shankar, Soori, Krish, Radikaa Sarathkumar, Sarath Babu and Vijayakumar. In the film, deputy commissioner in Visakhapatnam battles against a criminal operation dealing in deadly toxic waste.

Production

Following the commercial success of Singam II, Hari was keen to collaborate with Suriya for another action film with a fresh script away from the Singam franchise, and agreed terms in principle with the actor in October 2014. Hari revealed that as a result of pressure from those around him, he later developed the one-line story from the film into a script for a third part of Singam.

While most of the cast was from the earlier films were retained, including Anushka Shetty, Shruti Haasan was added to the cast, while Anirudh Ravichander was signed as the music composer replacing Devi Sri Prasad. Anirudh later opted out of the project citing scheduling issues and Harris Jayaraj was brought instead.

Principal photography, initially scheduled for December 2015, was delayed as a result of the 2015 South India floods. Production eventually began in Visakhapatnam in January 2016, and continued in places including Chennai, Karaikudi and Madurai. In March, the team moved to film song sequences in Romania. After a production break, production resumed in July in Visakhapatnam, before moving to the Talakona Forest region.
