Ashwath Marimuthu clarifies
A day after releasing the announcement video of his upcoming film, director Ashwath took to X to clarify to Silambarasan’s fans if his new film was initially written for the actor. He claimed that not only did the star like the announcement video, plus his debut film Oh My Kadavule, but plans for working with him are still on - just with a different script.
Making it clear that this isn’t the script he wrote for Silambarasan nor that he has been replaced, he wrote, “To all the @SilambarasanTR_ fans ! Sir called & appreciated the announcement video in his own style, he was the first one to call and appreciate #Ohmykadavule for 1.5 hrs. I would like to clarify that the script I had for him is different and we ll go ahead when he is ready.”
A decade-old friendship
Sharing candid pictures from the making of the film on Instagram, Pradeep revealed that him and Ashwath have been friends for more than a decade.
