Producer K Rajan Has This To Say About Delay In Dhruva Natachathiram's Release

Gautham Vasudev Menon, about a week ago, received a court order in which he was asked to repay the money to the production banner All In Pictures for a movie that did not happen. The court order asked Menon to pay an advance of Rs 2.40 crores as repayment in the court and the deadline was November 24 at 10:30 AM. In addition to that, he was also asked to release Dhruva Natchathiram on time. Amidst this, producer K. Rajan revealed some shocking information about the director during the music launch event of Emakathagan. The film will mark the debut of Kishanraj as a director.

Speaking at the music launch event, K. Rajan spoke about Gautham and his debt and said, “Currently, many small-budget films are being made and even getting censor certificates but they are unable to release. Even movies like Dhruva Natchathiram facing financial problems. The reason behind the same is the debt of nearly 60 crore rupees on the film’s director Gautham Menon.”

Dhruva Natchathiram, a spy action thriller penned, produced, and directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon, has faced a prolonged journey since its initiation in 2016. Despite three release dates announced in the past month, the film remains elusive to audiences, leaving director Gautham Menon uncertain about its actual release date. The extended production timeline, while asserted to have no impact on the film’s quality, has inadvertently led to diminishing interest among viewers. Notably, the absence of promotional activity from lead actor Chiyaan Vikram on his social media platform has sparked rumours of discord between him and the director.

In a peculiar marketing strategy, Gautham Menon continues to actively promote Dhruva Natchathiram without the involvement of Chiyaan Vikram. The film boasts a stellar cast, including Ritu Varma, R Parthiban, Simran, Radikaa Sarathkumar, and Vinayakan. Despite the uncertainties surrounding its release, the spy thriller holds promise, with Menon assuring that the delay will not compromise the film’s narrative impact or cinematic experience.
