Aridhu Aridhu audio launch and war of words [Saturday, June 12, 2010]
The audio launch of the movie 'Aridhu Aridhu' in Chennai turned out to be tumultuous with the participants having literally a war of words amongst themselves. It started off when Thangar Bachchan said that the producers were under financial constraints and that the Tamil Producers council has not done anything to benefit the producers. In response, Sivasakth Pandian, secretary of the council said that Thankar Bachchan sould be more cautious in speaking about the organization in a public gathering. Thangar Bachchan should stop making wild allegations. He has never visited the council office and was not part of any activities taken by the association for the welfare of producers. On many occasions, we have redressed the grievances of producers", said Mr Pandian. This sparked off a debate among the two which was later moderated by the others like Linguswamy, Shankar and Madhesh.
