The recently released film, Vengayam starring Sathyaraj, Alexander and Bhavina is facing problems. The director Sankagiri Rajkumar is threatening to immolate himself at the Thamaraparani Hotel located at Valaja road near Chepauk stadium. The reason is that he claims certain individuals with vested interests are sabotaging his film.
Though Vengayum cleared the censors, some theatre owners are using EFO technology while screening to mute words and portions of dialogues or lyrics which they believe are offensive. Therefore the film has been unable to make the desired impact. The climax scene has been particularly affected in an adverse manner. Unable to bear this injustice, Rajkumar is readying himself for immolation and is willing to burn to draw attention to the fate of the film.
