Suriya’s Film Producer In Poor Situation; Struggles Even To Buy Medicine - Did THIS Director Cheated Him?
Due to this, VA Durai released a video asking for help from his friends in the film industry. Producer Vidyal Raju has informed the producer association about his pathetic condition.
The
pitiful
situation
of
Pithamagan
film
producer
asking
for
help
without
money
even
to
buy
medicine
is
currently
causing
a
stir
on
social
media.
VA
Durai
is
the
most
popular
producer
in
Tamil
cinema.
He
became
popular
among
the
people
by
producing
the
movie
Vivaramana
Aalu
starring
Sathyaraj.
After
that,
he
made
films
like
Gajendra
starring
Vijayakanth
and
Baba
starring
Superstar
Rajinikanth.
However,
his
film
Gajendra
with
Vijayakanth
did
not
do
well.
Due
to
this
VA
Durai
was
facing
huge
financial
crisis.
He
was
not
in
a
position
to
make
a
new
film
after
that.
This
ruined
his
family
life.
Ten
years
ago
his
wife
and
daughter
separated
from
him.
So
he
was
living
alone.
He
was
also
suffering
from
diabetes.
VA
Durai
had
produced
Pithamagan
directed
by
Bala.
Many
actors
including
Vikram,
Surya,
Laila,
Sangeetha
acted
in
this
film.
The
film
released
and
received
a
good
response
among
the
fans
and
collected
well
at
the
box
office.
Also,
this
film
has
collected
many
awards.
The
producer
had
asked
Bala
to
direct
the
next
film
after
this.
He
had
given
25
lakh
rupees
as
advance
payment.
But,
after
getting
the
money,
Bala
kept
on
dragging
without
taking
the
next
film.
Enraged
by
this,
the
producer
has
asked
Bala
to
return
the
money.
But,
Bala
refused
to
give.
Due
to
this,
producer
VA
Durai
along
with
his
friends
even
went
on
dharna
protest
in
front
of
Bala's
office.
This
created
a
sensation
in
Kollywood
circles.
Even
the
producers'
union
executives
told
VA
Durai
that
they
would
talk
to
Bala
and
find
a
solution.
So
Durai
left
the
place
as
well.
But
Durai's
efforts
were
in
vain.
Bala
never
returned
the
money.
He
was
disheartened
by
this.
In
this
situation,
where
he
is
left
without
money
even
to
buy
medicine
is
creating
a
sensation
in
the
social
media.
That
is,
producer
Durai
is
suffering
from
diabetes
and
is
unable
to
walk
and
has
leg
ulcers.
Currently
he
is
staying
at
his
friend's
house
in
Saligram.
He
is
suffering
without
money
for
treatment.
Due
to
this,
VA
Durai
released
a
video
asking
for
help
from
his
friends
in
the
film
industry.
Producer
Vidyal
Raju
has
informed
the
producer
association
about
his
pathetic
condition.
Following
this,
the
producer
association
secretary
Mannan
has
also
vowed
to
do
his
best
to
help.
VA
Durai
had
worked
as
an
assistant
to
SP
Muthuraman
during
his
initial
stages
in
the
film
industry.
It
is
said
that
Durai
was
a
confidant
of
actor
Rajinikanth
at
that
time.
It
is
expected
that
Rajini
will
understand
Durai's
situation
and
help
him.
