Will Suriya dump Raja or Vaadivaasal ?

 

Will Suriya dump GananavelRaja ? or will he dump Vaadivaasal ?. Director Pa Ranjith the vociferous speaker on many issues has kept his silence as his film Thangalaan with Vikram is bankrolled by Raja’d Studio Green.

Suriya and his father Sivakumar are now being targeted for the outburst by Producer Gananvel Raja gainst Director Ameer. The growing support from the director’s fraternity for Ameer including Vetrimaaran who is to direct Surya in his next project Vaadivaasal has come as a rude jolt to Raja who issued an apology which he said was a reaction to what Ameer had said about the Paruthiveeran financial issues. This further agitated some who said that false insinuations against Ammer cannot be swept under the carpet in the garb of an apology and instead it should withdrawn from public domain and Raja should say that it was false. Anyway there is a move towards filing a contempt and defamation case against Raja.

Now the twist to the tale is that Raja who said that he did not speak out for 17 years was because the actor’s father Sivakumar had asked him to not do so. Raja said that it was not Ameer who gave Suriya the break but it was Suriya who gave Ameer the break. He further went on say that Karthi’s Paruthiveeran was a film for Ameer to learn direction by trail and error at Raja’s expense.

Now those associated with the film say that Raja was just a courier boy who carried cash from Suriya to the Production team and not once had he turned up at the location. Funds stopped coming from Suriya after the first copy limit was over, Ameer borrowed money from friends like Producer- Director – Actor Sasikumar. Finally, when it was ready for release, Raja took over and gave nothing to Ameer. Fact that Raja had no money of his own was evident as Karthi at the Japan function said that his brother’s saving was the fund for Paruthiveeran.

Now the charge is that Suriya has given his nod to Raja to take on Ameer after the latter described him not getting invited for Karthi 25 despite being the director who launched him as ungrateful. Raja went full throttle and even dragging Sudha Kongara in the matter by saying that she did not like Ameer’s Raam. Sudha was quick to rebut it by saying that Paruthiveeran was her model film.

There is great animosity that two relatives turned producers along with Suriya is indulging in dirty games. Even the recent scandal of an actor linked with music director’s wife is said to be the handiwork of the lobby that wants to demolish the actor’s family image and also that the actor dared to drag one of this lobby members to court over a financial issue.  Incidentally Sivakarthikeyan film Ayalaan is pitching for Pongal 2024 against many including Suriya’s Ganguvaa.

Vetrimaaran backs Ameer - Fight Club is Lokesh first production title

 Director Vetrimaaran through his company Grass Root Film Company made it clear on their X Page that Ameer is very much part of his Vaadivasal project. Karthi whose 25^th film was Japan invited all directors who worked with him for a function. Ameer who launched him was not invited.

Meanwhile Gananavel has issued a statement saying that if his interviews had hurt Ameer then he was apoligizing and it was only a knee jerk reaction to what Ameer said.
