The culmination of a confrontation between Simbu and the FEFSI Workers 'Union and the Producers' Union has caused a stir in Kollywood. The producer's union has been at loggerheads with the Pepsi organization over the past few days over the issue of the Simbu film. FEFSI chairman RK Selvamani told a news conference. In it, there are problems between Simbu and the Producers Association. They called me a week ago to finish talking about it.
It is said that Simbu has taken Rs 1 crore an advance from Tirupati Sami Pictures and Rs 50 lakh from producer Sivashankar. Selvakumar has been paid by a producer through Thenandal Films. The producers were told that the film had not been acted upon and the money had not been refunded. After all these problems were over, Simbu said he could go for a photoshoot.
RK Selvamani said it would be wrong to control the FEFSI Workers Union without ordering the producers not to film with Simbu. Simbu has created such a problem for FEFSI. The Producers Guild can't accept FEFSI being treated like a slave. It is not true that the Producers Guild accuses me of acting arbitrarily. FEFSI has always given up various things for the benefit of the producers. FEFSI has confirmed that it has not violated the agreement with the producers' association.
