Gulte Movie News And Politics
Director AR Murugadoss has landed in controversy after a complaint was reportedly filed against him by the producer of Madharaasi. The issue revolves around the film’s escalating budget, which has now become a major point of dispute within the industry.
According to reports, Murugadoss initially quoted a budget of ₹115 crore for the project. However, by the time the film neared completion, the costs had reportedly shot up to around ₹170 crore. The producer has alleged that improper planning and simultaneous work on another project, Sikandar, contributed to the budget overshoot.
Upset with the unexpected financial burden, the producer approached the ‘Directors and Producers’ Council, seeking compensation of ₹10 crore. The matter was taken up for discussion, and both parties were called in to resolve the issue amicably.
After deliberations, a compromise was reached. As part of the settlement, Murugadoss has reportedly agreed to write and provide the story for Ramana 2 (Telugu version) free of cost to the production house. This move is seen as a way to offset the financial strain caused by the budget increase.
