Bala
is a master at his trade. He makes movies
that stand out from the rest and speak for
themselves. We can confidently say that
he was the man who made Vikram a star with
Sethu and later got him the national award
with Pithamagan.
He
also gave Surya’s career a real
boost with Nandha. If there is anything
that the director is not popular for,
it is his erratic mode of film making,
if one can call it so. He is known
to regularly take his films past the
scheduled date and also exceed the
designated budget.
The producer of Naan Kadavul, Thenappan
does not want this to repeat and has
asked Bala to take care of this aspect.
The film has been budgeted at a costly
22 crores and any excess expenditure
can cost the producer dear.
Bala
has reportedly given it to his producer
in writing that the film will be completed
by the announced date and that the budget
will not cross the set limits. The film
is expected to release by early next year.
Only time will tell whether the film releases
on time. Till then it is a tense time for
the producer. The news is that Ilayaraja
has already started working on the tunes
for the movie.
