Actor, director and producer Manobala is a happy man as he has gone on to win the elections held for the South Indian Film Writers Association 2018. In an exclusive chat with Behindwoods, Manobala said:


“The writers association did not even have elections previously. However, a lot of story theft and lot of others issues have been going on. In order to strengthen the association, we have had an election for the writers union and am very happy to have won it. Our team includes K.Bhagyaraj, RK Selvamani, Ramesh Khanna and others. We from the writers association have the power to completely shut down the industry in case of these sort of thefts and will ensure that there is no such corruption that is related to our wing. It is really a warm feeling to be part of this winning team.”

'THIS IS TOO MUCH, WHY CAN'T THEY WAIT?', MANOBALA QUESTIONS THALAPATHY 62 TEAM!

Earlier this morning, controversy popped up after the news that TFPC allowed four Tamil films to shoot, (after the producers of the respective films procuring permission), despite the strike.
 

The four films included Thalapathy 62, Naadodigal 2, Kannum Kannum Kollaiyadithaal, and another untitled film.


In a recent interview with Behindwoods, popular actor, producer, and director Manobala raised questions about the shoot of Thalapathy 62, amidst the total industry shutdown.


Manobala questioned, "They say, if we give a letter, they will allow shooting. What is this? How much time is it going to take for every producer to write a letter, take a print out and submit it? These are all lame reasons.


For Vijay 62, they say that the stunt master is not available for the next two months if they leave this date. What is this? This is too much. We all are standing together, to fight against an issue, and for the betterment of the whole industry. Why is there a hurry? How can this happen? TFPC is discussing with various associations to solve the issue and let us give time.


If Vijay sir is giving his dates next month, for the film, and they ask the stunt masters to come back, obviously the masters are going to come. Why can't they do that? Allowing Naadodigal 2 shoot is acceptable since Samuthirakani asked for just one-day extension so that the entire schedule can be completed. That is fine since they are filming with a limited budget. But, for Vijay 62, more than three months of shooting is still left, and why can't they wait?


If they are allowing Vijay 62 shoot to happen, why not other films? Director Kannan (Jayam Kondan fame), requested TFPC to allow him to shoot his film Boomerang since the whole schedule was planned during the strike's dates. Kannan said that his whole schedule plan will get affected, but they were not ears for that, and the TFPC didn't have an answer. Now, they allow these films. Why is that so? Either allow everyone to shoot, or ask everyone to stop."
