Kalaipuli S Thanu lashed out at Vishal recently. “When a foundation stone-laying ceremony for the new building construction was held last year in March, why was there a repeat on Friday (today), inviting everyone, as if it is being done for the first time? Is it a publicity stunt by actor Vishal, just when the Producers’ Council elections are around the corner?” the Kabali producer questioned Vishal.
He added, “While I am not contesting this time, my aim is to form a good team and hence I am in support of Radhakrishnan. When Vishal cannot even help producers — who suffer while producing his films — how will he support other producers?”
After producer Siva backed out from contesting for the post of the president (at the behest of Thanu), and joined the Radhakrishnan team, another influential person, Kalaipuli Shekaran attended the meet and lent his support to Radhakrishnan.
