CS Amudhan's second film, Tamizh Padam 2 released last week to some good response from the audience and critics alike. However, many had criticised him for being soft on the opposition party in Tamil Nadu. An audience of the film had tweeted: "While I just love Tamil Padam 2.0, I can't ignore the allegation that you are soft on DMK @csamudhan You have indeed been very kind towards DMK and the great SEYAL".

Responding to such allegations, CS Amudhan said:

1) There is no going soft or hard on anyone, I'm not a public prosecutor.

2) Pop-culture references especially visually identifiable ones have been employed wherever they helped take the story forward, that and no other criteria was used. 

3) I had originally written a scene where Wasim Khan walked to a police jeep in white veshti and his shirt unbuttoned but cut it out as I was worried the first half was getting bloated. (With reference to Stalin's incident at the Assembly).

4) While I've repeatedly said that no political ideology dictated the content of TP2, if the allegation is that I've put my politics into my film..there is nothing wrong with it. That is completely my prerogative & inalienable right. Every filmmaker from Charlie Chaplin to Ranjith put their politics in their films. Can we move on now
