Kavithalaya Productions facing financial crisis

Veteran filmmaker K. Balachander"s Kavithalaya Productions is remembered for churning out some of the best evergreen entertainers. But in the recent times, the production house is reported of having drenched in financial crisis.

It is not worth mentioning that it had completed the production works of Krishna Leelai nearly a year ago and yet it remains unreleased. Although the project was reported of having been acquired by Ayngaran International, still there hasn"t been any news on the film release.

The film is directed by Vinayan, once an associate of director Shankar. Jeevan had previously played playboy characters in the films Naan Avan Illai and its sequel. For the first time, he has taken up a role of a socially responsible youngster settling scores with baddies in society. Meghana Raj stars opposite Jeevan in female lead role, while R. Sundarrajan, Nasser, Kathal Dhandapani and Kota Sreenivasa Rao have performed important roles.

Muriyadi is the other movie produced by the same banner. Director Selvan has completed the shooting within short span of time. The film is remake of Malayalam superhit movie Passenger starring Dileep, Srinivasan and Mamta Mohandas in lead roles. The remake version has Sathyaraj, Ganesh Venkataram and Ramya Nambeesan.

Closer sources of Kavithalaya Productions have said that Muriyadi will be released by December.
