Tirupur Subramaniam head of theatre association  has informed Active Producers association that it cannot police the YouTubers who take public reaction from viewers on the First Day First Show. He has said that the interviews are conducted outside the theatre complex and not inside the auditorium. He said that theatres do not have the manpower to enforce the diktat. The main grouse in social media is that reigning in public views is not acceptable. Asking reviewers to restrict themselves to the film and not indulge in personal attacks was so far the appeal from Producers and not bring public into the ambit.
