Vathiyar,
which was supposed to be a Diwali release
ran into trouble owing to several reasons.
Previously, debts with Ramoji Rao film
city where the movie was filmed and the
pending paycheck of Arjun were quoted
as reasons for the delayed release of
the movie – which was reported by
us earlier.
Now
though, it seems that there is another
interesting story behind the troubles
of the movie.
Here is how the trouble brewed. The
assistant directors who worked with
the Vathiyar director Venkat are incidentally
working with Shankar in Rajini’s
Sivaji as well. This sparked suspicion
amidst the officials at AVM, the producers
of Sivaji, that a possible lift of
the Sivaji’s storyline or even
a few scenes is more than likely in
Vathiyar due to the assistant director
connection. Following this, AVM demanded
for a special screening of Vathiyar
to make sure that there not even a
few imperceptible traces of Sivaji
in Vathiyar.
A
crew from AVM watched Vathiyar and it
is reported that the company has okayed
the movie for its release. Following this,
Vathiyar is expected to hit the screens
having been cleared all the mysteries.
