Sivakarthikeyan files a case against 'Mr. Local' makers; deets inside

Sivakarthikeyan has filed a case against 'Mr. Local' makers for his pending remunerations. Sivakarthikeyan played the lead role in the romantic comedy 'Mr.Local', which was directed by M Rajesh, and the 2019 release didn't work big at the box office. The makers have reportedly left a balance in Sivakarthikeyan's pay package for the film. So, Sivakarthikeyan has moved the Madras High Court accusing producer

Gnanavel Raja

of

Studio Green

Films.

In the complaint, Sivakarthikeyan has stated that he has only received Rs 11 crore from his agreed amount of Rs 15 crore for 'Mr.Local'. Also, the TDS for ₹11 cr is also not remitted by Studio Green to the government. So, he requested the court to ban the producer's current films which are under production until he pays his remaining salary for 'Mr.Local'. The Judge, who heard the case, has adjourned the case for the next hearing on March 31.

'Mr.Local' features Sivakarthikeyan and Nayanthara in lead roles, and it received mixed reviews.
