Vijay has to compensate for his flops!


Ilayathalapathy Vijay is in a fix. A crucial meeting, of Tamil Nadu Theatre Owners Association (TTOA) was held in Chennai today (May 28).

TTOA has threatened to issue a ‘Red Card’ against the star if he does not compensate them for “the colossal failure of Sura as they could not recover the money that they had paid as MG for the film.

Says R. Paneerselvam, Secretary, TTOA: “We have tried to get an appointment with Vijay, but he could not be reached. All his recent films including Sura and Vettaikaran were failures and we lost heavily. The continued poor performance of his films has actually forced us to convene an emergency meeting. We are demanding that he compensate us with atleast 35 percent of our losses. We are hoping Vijay understands our difficulties and helps us out."

Paneerselvam and other members of TTOA made it clear that if Vijay is not willing to give a compensation, both his fortcoming films Kavalkaran and Velayudham will not be screened by any of the theatres in Tamil Nadu. They claim the combined losses from Vijay’s last five films was approximately around Rs 30 Crore!
