Actor Prabhu Deva has completed the shoot of his next Tamil film Charlie Chaplin 2 produced by Amma Creations. Sources close to us have revealed that his next film is again with Amma Creations, directed by R. Parthiepan. However, an official confirmation regarding the same is yet to be made. More updates will follow soon.
Prabhu Deva is also awaiting the release of his film with director Vijay titled Lakshmi opposite Aishwarya Rajesh.
Actor R. Parthiepan has made a moving statement regarding the loan shark controversy due to which producer Ashok Kumar has taken his own life:
"This incident is an example of someone as soft, emotional and sensitive as Ashok Kumar cannot survive in the film industry. If this situation continues, usury alone and bad people alone will exist.
I could not have been educated had my mother's thaali not been mortgaged. I sold a bungalow of mine in Valasaravakkam for Rs. 74 lakhs to return a debt of just Rs. 20 lakhs, and it is now worth Rs. 7 crore. I have not had any balance dues with any financier to date, and I ensure that always.
Recently, when director-actor Cheran faced a situation where he had to evacuate his office, I offered him my office space. I myself rent an office space for Rs. 20,000 in Thiruvanmiyur. It was simply the will to help out a friend. If that will becomes strong in each of us, we can beat this problem. We always say, "Approach the sangam for any problems of yours." But whether we actually do solve the problems of a man in need is still an unanswered question.
The solution to all these problems in the industry is all of the people in it coming together, talking about it and setting up some forum to address these problems and find help from other selfless individuals."
