Joker director Rajumurugan clarifies on comments about Rajinikanth and Vijay

The director had recently hit the headlines for his comments on actors Vijay and Rajinikanth at the audio launch function of director Kalanjiyam's Munthiri Kaadu, in which when talking about the film's lead, he said "When there are people who have titles like Ilayathalapathy and Superstar, we must give him a title too".

ஒரு இசை வெளியீட்டு நிகழ்வில் எந்த உள்நோக்கமும் இல்லாமல் உற்சாகப்படுத்துவதற்காக பேசப்பட்ட விசயம் அது. வார்த்தைகள் தவறாக அமைந்ததற்கு வருந்துகிறேன். ரஜினி அவர்களும், விஜய் அவர்களும் தங்களது உழைப்பால், அர்ப்பணிப்பால் தமிழ் சினிவாவின் இந்த உச்சங்களைத் தொட்டவர்கள்.

Following the incident, the director expressed regret for his poor choice of words for criticising the actors.The writer-director had expressed that Rajinikanth and Vijay has reached such levels due to their sheer hard work and dedication and that the comments were passed on a lighter vein.

On the work front, Rajumurugan is gearing up for the release of his upcoming drama Gypsy, which stars Jiiva, Natasha Singh, Sunny Wayne and others in lead roles. The film is produced by S. Ambeth Kumar under the banner Olympia pictures.
