Recently, Kamal Haasan announced that he will be producing Rajinikanth’s 173rd film, tentatively titled #Thalaivar173. Sundar C was roped in as the director, but just days after the formal announcement, the director put out a press release announcing his exit.
This came as a shock to many, and since then several speculations have been doing the rounds. Some said Sundar C stepped back because there was no proper story, and that he didn’t even communicate his decision to Rajini and Kamal before making the news public.
Sundar C’s wife and actress Kushboo Sundar rubbished these rumors in her latest tweet, saying she’s surprised at how people believe something based purely on hearsay. So the story isn’t the reason behind his exit. Will Kamal or Rajini reveal what exactly happened that led to Sundar C stepping away? Let’s see.
