"I worked as an assistant to the director Rajakumar. In 2015, I wrote a story with the theme that abortion is a sin and how an unborn victim avenges those who destroyed her after five years of life. I narrated the story to a Sri Lankan producer with the help of a friend named Anbalagan. The producer too agreed to to the film. Director Rajakumaran agreed to act in my film. Just when I was happy about receiving the 'advance', Diya movie reviews hit my heart like a thunder.

The story of my film was released as Diya, and that story was what was written in the newspaper. I was so tensed...I decided to watch the film...The movie only had some changes. The base story of an aborted child's soul killing those responsible for her death - from relatives to doctor and compounder is mine. Many scenes in the film were exactly how I had envisioned them for my story...

I have cell phone records of discussing this story with friends from about 2 years ago, and records of talking to the friend Anbalagan. There are a lot of friends, including director Raju Kumaran, to testify that this story is mine..I do not want anything but for the world to know that Diya is a plagiarised story.

Director Vijay and I have no connection. But the story of the film he directed is mine. I am the owner of Diya's story. The story may have spread from different people to director Vijay. But that doesn't mean I will withhold from claiming what is mine".
