Producer PL Thenappan's speech against Simbu at Kee audio launch event.

"This is a star-studded event, we are all here only for one man, Michael Rayappan. I have a question for Producer Council President Vishal, why has Michael Rayappan's complaint against Simbu not taken seriously? Why has no action been taken against Simbu yet? I feel sad because I know what pain Michael Rayappan must be going through.

Even I faced problems with Simbu while producing Vallavan. Only I know how hard it is to work with him. I have experienced so many issues when I let him direct a film for me but I did not raise any complaint against him. When the producer has raised a complaint and is worried about the loss he incurred, Simbu is casually taking a selfie and posting it on social media. What kind of producers are we to sit and see this nonsense and this proves there is no unity in the producer's council."
