After a production house named Magnum Rays filed a petition in court claiming that they own the distribution rights for Vaalu in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala and Pondicherry and demanded an interim stay on the release, the court has adjourned the cast to July 13th.
“Every body knows my father had acquired the rights to release the film “Vaalu” quite some time back. His decision was not only on the basis of being my father but also as an reputed director-producer. He loved the film and hence took this decision. We are all set to release the film,by the mid of this month. We sorted out various issues related to the film one by one until we came across this other party claiming the release rights for our film,” Simbu says in an official statement.
“Reasons beyond my strength and hidden forces against the film as well as me are in the full process of sabotagising the release on the prescribed date. The mutual bonding I share with my fans, the wishes and blessings of my well wishers and the support of media gives me immense strength in this hour,” added Simbu.
While the team is hopeful that the film will release as scheduled on July 17th, all eyes are now cast on the final verdict of Madras High Court which is expected on July 13th.
