''THERI HAS BROUGHT THE EARNINGS OF TWO FILMS PUT TOGETHER''

Producer S.Thanu recently held a press conference to further clarify his position regarding the controversy surrounding the release of Theri in some parts of the Chengalpet district. As quoted by him, the rights for the film were sold by him to a Mumbai based company, who in turn had it sold to respective distributors such as SPI Cinemas. Also, he reinstated his stand that he never had a say regarding the negotiations that  went on between the distributors and respective theatre owners. Moreover the ace producer was furious about the disappointing actions of a particular theatre owner who he claims has been in the habit of demanding money from him to bear the loss of a previous film, every time a new film was set for release in Chengalpet.

Thanu also presented details of a bank DD drawn in favour of the above mentioned Mumbai based company for 2 Crores. This he did so to compensate for the loss the company might have suffered due to the film not being sold in Chengalpet. Apart from this, the producer revealed details about the worldwide box office collections of Theri and quoted it as a movie which has brought the exhibitors the earnings of two ordinary films put together.
