There is a strong saying that Simbu has been given a red card so he will not be acting in Mani Ratnam's next film. Simbu put a full stop to all the rumours at Sakka Podu Podu Raja audio launch.
"People are telling that I am not acting in Mani Ratnam sir's film but I was last told I am part of the film. Even after all these allegations on me, Mani sir is ready to make a film with me. I don't know why? Maybe he is also a fan of me like my fans.
I will begin shooting for Mani sir's film on January 20 and I will complete my commitments for the film in three months flat. No one can stop me from doing that film."
Best wishes Simbu, Mani Ratnam and team!
Part 3 speech of Simbu from Sakka Podu Podu Raja audio launch where he talks about the hot AAA controversy:
"I know you all want me to address the issue. I accept I am also at fault here, I agree my film AAA did not do well. For fans, we did a jolly film which did not work. It should have been a 1 part film but due to the budget issue, we had to make it a 2 part film.
There have been issues but what bothered me was that the producer could have told me about it rather than blowing up the issue after 6 months.
You can stop me from acting, but you cannot stop me from entertaining my fans. As long as I have all your love, I am not going to leave you. Please forgive me if I did anything wrong."
