While issues already in the Film Artistes Union amp Producers Council, the production company went to publish a paper advertisement of Vasantha Kumaran featuring Vijay Sethupathi onNovember 2014. After waking up to see an advertisement for a film that he has openly asked not to be a part of, actor Vijay Sethupathi threatened to go to the police and the court, if the producer didnt back down. The actor claims he has walked out of the film and that they cannot publish ads featuring him. He adds that it is highly disappointing to see some paper ads this morning with his picture from the production team and pleaded the fans not to believe the same.Responding to those allegations in a statement, Vijay Sethupathi said, When I came to know that the production houses idea was to make money without making the film, I backed out. The producer had indulged in several activities that were wrong and used a lot of bad language, which is why I decided that I would not act in this film. Over the last year, I have been offering to return the advance of Rslakh with interest, that I took for the film. But, he has not accepted this and has been asking for crores of rupees in damages. The actor had sought help from the Nadigar Sangam Film Artistes Union while the producer had done the rounds at the Tamil Film Producers Council both groups met for an arbitration, that didnt quite work out. I even gave a second complaint to the Nadigar Sangam to be freed from this movie so that I could work on my other films, he added. ........
