One known not to suppress
his bold opinions, Radha Ravi recently used
the audio launch event of Neeyum Naanum to
voice a few of them on how some actors are
overpaid in the industry. “Only very
few people raise the issue of exorbitant rates
of our lead actors. It’s contradicting
to say that the actors are overpaid all the
while you back them and their movies.”
he lashed out at the producers, directors
and distributors who continue to support such
stars. “Please do not book actors who
demand high rates. They will fall in line
if everyone cooperates. All we need is to
be determined enough to save the industry,”
he said.
He went on to say that independently Tamil
movies have no respect and they are being
turned away by the theatre owners. “Who
are these people to decide about big and small
movies,” he questioned.
The event was attended by Kushboo, V C Guhanathan,
R K Selvamani, Pandiarajan and lyricist Piraisoodan.
