The Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC) office was locked yesterday (December 19) by producers A.L.Alagappan, J.K.Ritheesh, and a few others, who came to the office to demand Vishal to resign as the President of TFPC. Alagappan had also revealed that the keys of the TFPC office would be given in the Commissioner office.
 

Alagappan reportedly accused actor and TFPC president Vishal, while addressing the media. He said, "We had asked about the deposit amount that is there in the association, but Vishal never responded. Producer Kathiresan said that he doesn't have an idea about it. As a secretary of the association, Kathiresan;s answer was not right and acceptable.
 

Moreover, when he (Vishal) came into power, he assured that only a maximum of 4 films will release for a weekend. But, last week, we had seen the release of more than 4 films and as a result, most of the producers faced a big loss. This week, there are 7 movies, and Vishal says the association will not interfere in the release, since it is a holiday weekend. This will definitely incur loss for many producers, and so, we, the smalltime producers have all come together (around 200 people) to ask Vishal to resign as the President of TFPC. He is making decisions independently without having any discussions or meetings with other members. We have now locked the office and we will give the keys in the register office."


Following that, Vishal was supposedly asked by the Pondy Bazaar Police Officials to get they key from them to open the office. However, it is said that Vishal tried to break open the lock and get inside the office, which resulted in a heated argument between Vishal and the Police officials. Things got more heatened up when Vishal was arrested and taken into a van, under the police custody.


Vishal, who seemed frustrated with this turn of events said that, "Unauthorised people lock our office and the Police provides protection for an unofficial lock. As a President, I want to go and do my work and when I entered, the Police argued and arrested me, saying that I am obstructing a Government servant to do the job. This is definitely not acceptable."


The talks are on between Vishal's team and the Police officials and it is said that the Police will be opening the door of the TFPC office soon, after which Vishal is expected to be released.

This tug of war between the two different bodies has come as a shocker inside the industry. More clarity on this controversy is yet to be attained. Stay tuned.
