Maanja Velu is in trouble

Arun Vijay’s Maanja Velu is in deep trouble with producer Dr. Kalidas filing a petition in the High Court of Madras to stay its release. The film is to hit the screens on May 21st and the High Court has issued a stay order till May 19th.

According to the petitioner, Arun Vijay had acted in Thunichal which was produced by him. But even after paying the full salary and the dubbing fee, the actor refused to dub for Thunichal citing various reasons. Following this, the film was released in just a few centers in Tamil Nadu as there were no takers.

The petitioner stated that since Arun Vijay did not lend his voice the movie flopped, due to which he incurred huge losses.

In his petition, Dr. Kalidas has appealed for Rs. 1.5 crore as damages from Arun Vijay failing which his Maanja Velu should not be released.
