RK Nagar constituency MLA, TTV Dhinakaran said that Sarkar is a film that is made purely for business motive and nothing else. While speaking to the media, TTV Dhinakaran said
"Sarkar is no different from the films that we have seen in the past. It is going to perform just like any other Vijay films. I just feel that the media has been creating unnecessary controversies and giving a free publicity for the film.
I am not sure how civilized these people are you make films against great leaders who are now no more. If they are talking about freebies provided by the government in their films, shouldn't they talk about the pros and cons in the system? Why only target the negative aspects?
I don't think Sarkar is made with any other motive but to make good business at the box office. I don't see any neutral judgment in the film."
