Iraivi - Producers' council seeks non-cooperation for Karthik Subbaraj's films

Producers' council met until 9pm on June 6th to discuss the proposal to issue a red card against director Karthik Subbaraj for wrong portrayal of producer in the movie Iraivi. The issue that was discussed was that Subbaraj portrayed the producer as a sadist villain. They blamed Karthik Subbaraj for making Iraivi out of personal vengeance at the expense of causing huge losses to producer CV Kumar. After the meeting, the following have been decided.

1. Red Card was not issued against Karthik Subbaraj as they believed it will not stand a chance in the court if Karthik Subbaraj appeals against it.

2. The producer council members unanimously agreed for non-cooperation to future Karthik Subbaraj's movies. None of the producer council members should produce his movie even if Karthik Subbaraj apologizes and requests for pardon.

3. The producer council has reached out to FEFSI, which is a group of 20+ unions, to not cooperate for any Karthik Subbaraj's future movies. The producer council has sent strong influential contingent to convince FEFSI leaders.

4. The above non-cooperation will be withdrawn if and only if Karthik Subbaraj repays all the over-budget spend and box office losses to CV Kumar and other financial partners involved. Even in this case, it will only allow Karthik Subbaraj to produce and direct his own movie, contingent upon paying all the losses and balances due.

The above proposals have been agreed after the producer council discussion and expected to be ratified after getting agreement from FEFSI and other key players.
