Chennai, November 21 - Ever since actor Suriya's Tamil film "Jai Bhim" has released on Amazon Prime Video, it has triggered a new spot of controversy. Despite winning accolades for making such a hard-hitting film, the social drama film is being subjected to show the Vanniyar community in a bad light.

While the makers of the film, including actor Suriya, are facing criticism, director Tha Se Gnanavel, feels responsible for all the trouble Suriya facing for doing this film. On Sunday, Gnanavel posted a statement on Twitter and said that he regretted the trouble Suriya was facing on his account.



"The welcome that 'Jai Bhim' got from all segments has brought us happiness. In the same way, I did not actually expect some opinions that have gone against the film", he said in a statement, claiming that he did not know that a calendar that was in the background would be construed as an identity of a community.

He explained that the intention behind placing the calendar there was only to manifest the idea that the year was 1995. "None of us had any intention of showing the calendar as an identity of any community. When I got to know about the calendar from social media on the night of November 1, after the film had released on Prime Video, all efforts were made to immediately get the calendar changed on the morning of November 2 itself", he added.

Stating that it was unfortunate that actor Suriya was being asked to take responsibility for something that he, as director, was solely responsible for, Gnanavel said he wished to express his regret for the difficulty it had caused to Suriya. "As an actor and a producer of this film, Suriya's only intention was to take the difficulties that indigenous people face to everybody," the director said.





Jai Bhim is produced by Jyothika and Suriya under 2D Entertainment. It is based on a true incident in 1993, which involves a case fought by Justice K. Chandru. It revolves around the lives of Senggeni and Rajakannu, a couple from the Irular tribe. Rajakannu was arrested by the police and was later missing from the police station. Senggeni seeks the help of an advocate Chandru to seek justice for her husband. Chandru files a habeas corpus case and he refers Rajan case to continue further to find the truth.

The film stars Suriya playing the role of Justice Chandru, with Lijomol Jose, K. Manikandan, Rajisha Vijayan, Prakash Raj, Rao Ramesh, and others in supporting roles. It was released on November 2 on Amazon Prime Video, skipping theatrical release.

Stay tuned...
