Ameer, the director of Paruthiveeran has hit back at Sivakumar and sons! He has filed a case against Sivakumar, Surya, Karthi, Gnanavel, and Prasad labs, at the Madras High Court seeking compensation that he has not received for the film.Ameer in his petition has made very serious allegations against Sivakumar and sons. He says that half way through the shooting of Paruthiveeran they lost interest and started producing Sillunnu Oru Kathal, which bombed. So they asked Ameer’s `Teamwork productions` to produce it, but when the film was completed and they saw the first copy of the film they wanted it back!
The matter went up to the producer’s council, who tried to work out an amicable settlement. As per the final deal thrashed out, Paruthiveeran would be a joint venture between `Studio Green` (Surya’s production concern) and `Teamwork production`. All the rights including dubbing, remake and television were to be shared between the two, but after the release, Ameer claims that all this was flouted by `Studio Green`.
Ameer now wants the court to intervene and get him his due compensation which he has pegged at Rs 80 Lakhs. Justice Prabha Sridevan has asked Sivakumar and his group to reply to the petition by August 22.
