'Paruthiveeran' row: Samuthirakani demands KE Gnanavelraja to apologize in public

KE Gnanavelraja, the popular Tamil producer has landed in controversy for his comment against 'Paruthiveeran' director, and he has been facing trolls on social media. Several celebrities stood by director Ameer's side to condemn the producer and he was strongly opposed to his statement. KE Gnanavelraja then clarified the reason for his statement against Ameer and apologized through a press release.But director-actor Samuthirakani, who earlier condemned KE Gnanavelraja, has now refused to accept his apology through a press release and demanded the producer to apologize through a public forum like how he made his derogatory comment against Ameer.

In the press release shared on social media against KE Gnanavelraja, Samuthirakani stated that all these regrets made by KE Gnanavelraja will not be accepted. So, he demanded the producer to apologize publicly in the same public place where he used rude and obnoxious body language. Samuthirakani wants to get rid of that nasty, sloppy interview given by KE Gnanavelraja on social media. He also demanded the producer to settle the unpaid money. Because a lot of people who have taken loans have to pay back, and many actors and technicians who worked in the movie "Paruthiveeran" are still owed salaries. He further added that justice delayed is justice denied.

KE Gnanavelraja described Ameer as a cheat as he claimed that the director submitted illegal production costs during the evaluation of 'Paruthiveeran', and his recent apology clarifying his earlier statement was expected to end the controversy. But it continues as Samuthirakani and Sasikumar, who are good friends of director Ameer, and worked as his associates in 'Paruthiveeran', demand the producer to apologize in a public forum.
