Amala Paul says that reason for quitting 3 was due to her call sheet problems. She while speaking to the media said, “In the recent times, there are wrong news about me.
I don't how to explain this. I was supposed to act in the film 3. Since I had given call sheet for a Telugu film, it was not possible for me to allocate dates for this film. Aishwarya wanted to complete this film in a single schedule. That is the reason I was not able to act in it. That is what happened. But people writing so many different things about this.

The song Why This Kolaveri Di from the film 3 has become very popular. Dhanush has sculpted this song very well. But at the same time I am not upset because I am not a part of the film. I think I will get a better opportunity than this.

There is no point in people telling that I am trying to capture the place of Nayanthara since she has quit acting. She is a wonderful actress. My fans are telling me that I look like Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone. I don't like to be compared with anyone. I want to be myself.”
