While Shankar’s S Pictures bankrolled the first part, Shankar and Lyca decided to jointly produce the sequel, which too was set to be directed by Chimbu Devan.
However, the project did not take off due to difference of opinions between Vadivelu and the makers of the movie. Both sides levelled allegations against each other.
At this juncture, reports said Naam Tamizhar Katchi chief Seeman came forward to mediate between Vadivelu and the producers. However, Shankar and Lyca were said to be firm in their decision to Vadivelu for wasting their time and money, and for making ‘inappropriate comments’.
Vadivelu is not in good terms with Shankar and Chimbu Devan, after his project with them, ‘Imsai Arasan 24am Pulikesi’ ran into trouble. In a recent interview, the ace comedian said Shankar was a ‘graphics director’. He also said that Chimbu Deven was a man who did not know cinema.
