Director's comments hurts film's success?

Bharathiraja's comment about the corporate companies entering the film industry could hurt him now. His long-delayed Bommalattam hit the screens just a few days back and it could be out of the theatres even before the audience realizes the movie was released! The film, which stars Arjun and Kajal Agarwal, is inspired by a real life murder mystery.

Bharathiraja's statement that the corporate companies are like crocodiles eating away a major chunk of the profits and that they do not take the pains to market the film seems to have irked corporate production houses like Pyramid Saimira.

This statement has proved to be costly mistake for the director, as most of the theatres are now under the wings of Pyramid Saimira. Irked by these remarks, PS has now decided to take Bommalattam off its theatres citing the arrival of new releases.
