Illaiyaraaja condolence message in bad taste = PS 2 Tamil Nadu BO drops further - Rajini v.s Chiranjeevi

Music director Illaiyaraaja's video paying tribute to the late Actor-director Manobala has stirred up controversy among netizens due to his self-praise. The video starts with Illaiyaraaja mentioning Manobala's great respect for him and goes on to say that Manobala used to wait at the Kodambakkam bridge to catch his attention. He further claims that Manobala was one among many directors who waited there to get him to score music. This self-praise has not gone down well with many viewers who find it distasteful. Manobala, who had a YouTube channel called "Waste Paper," talked about his journey in films. In one such video, he spoke about directing the Tamil remake of the Hindi film "Khoon Bhari Maang." Initially hesitant to take up the project, Manobala was convinced by Radhika, who assured him that the screenplay would be modified to appeal to Tamil audiences and that the renowned writer Kalaignar (the DMK patriarch M Karunanidhi) would write the script. Despite initial reluctance, Kalaignar accepted the project, thanks to Radhika's persuasion, even though the film lacked political undertones. Manobala also mentioned that Radhika insisted that he not alter Karunanidhi's dialogues, even if they sounded outdated. The film starred Nizhalagal Ravi, Sarath Babu, Raadhika, and featured music by Illaiyaraaja but failed to perform well at the box office. Manobala further said that Karunanidhi had written on the side of dialogue sheet that it can be changed if needed. Manobala later joined AIADMK and was their star campaigner.
