Thiruvananthapuram: The dispute within the Malayalam film association continues to rage. Producer Suresh Kumar has come forward with criticism against producer Antony Perumbavoor. Suresh Kumar said that the strike was not decided by a single person and was decided collectively by the organizations. Antony does not attend meetings. Suresh Kumar said that the minutes related to this can be checked.
When Antony started watching the movie, he was the one who made the movie. I am not a fool. The organization is not here to make fun of him. What he said about Empuran’s budget was informed by those concerned. If he wants to withdraw it, he can withdraw it. G Suresh Kumar added that he will continue with the strike. The press conference held by producer G Suresh Kumar, announcing that the film industry will come to a standstill from June 1, had started a big discussion. Suresh Kumar’s announcement was made by saying that it was a decision taken jointly by various film organizations.
Now, producer and member of the Producers Association, Antony Perumbavoor, has come out with a major criticism against Suresh Kumar. Suresh Kumar had also spoken critically about the budget of Empuraan. Antony’s lengthy note is in response to all this. “After much thought, I still don’t understand the appropriateness of him speaking publicly about the budget of Aashirvad Cinemas film Empuraan. Why is the cost of a film whose post-production works have not been completed subject to public discussion in a public forum? I have never spoken publicly about the budget or collection of my films.
In that case, it is honestly impossible to tell with what enthusiasm and emotion he spoke in public, and whether he said all this to improve the industry or to make it negative.” “Talking about
Empuraan , we all know about the importance that Kannada language cinema has gained at the all-India level after a film like KGF, which was made on a huge budget, achieved great success beyond the boundaries of national languages. No Malayalam film has been able to achieve such a success till now. I am proud that Aashirvaad’s efforts were made with the dream of such a multilingual success. The backstage staff, including the director, have been working with such dedication for the last two years with that in mind. “A great actor like Lalsar has been collaborating with it all this time. We are taking this dream forward by collaborating with a big production house like Lyca,” Antony Perumbavoor wrote. The post has received a lot of acceptance on social media.
