Producer Elred Kumar has taken director Gautham Menon to court over a money dispute. And talk in the industry is that an amount of Rs 20 crore is involved. While there are allegations being made by both parties against each other, it is now rumoured that Gautham needs to pay Elred Rs 20 crore for the losses the producer has faced. Gautham has worked on four films for the producer but none of them made a dent in the box office.
All four films failed and now financial issues allegedly have cropped up between the two.
Meanwhile, the question being raised is what will happen to Gautham as he no films on hand that he is directing. And it is reported that in this situation big stars are hesitant to sign on any projects with him. And if the court goes in favour of Elred, the director will have no choice but to cough up the huge amount.
