Top Director Hits Back on Senior Writer-Director

The plagiarism charges on Tamil director AR Murugadoss have gone so far that he had to come out claiming his innocence and refuting the allegations that his story was copied from the story ‘Sengol’ written by Varun Rajendran. This Varun filed a complaint against the director in the Madras High Court and the court passed notices to the production house, even.

Pained and hurt, Murugadoss openly addressed the person who made plagiarism allegations and also the senior writer cum director Bhagyaraj for confirming that Murugadoss’ story for Vijay Ilayapathy’s upcoming movie ‘Sarkar’ was similar to ‘Sengol’. ARM further questioned how Bagyaraj can pass a judgement just reading the synopsis of his story without even going through the bounded script.

Further, Murugadoss asked the senior write-director why he didn’t watch his movie when he offered to show the part he had shot already. Looks like, Murugadoss is in no mood to take the plagiarism allegations for granted and didn’t want someone else to claim the right for the hard work he had put in along with his team. ‘Sarkar’ is slated to release on 6th November and it’s necessary for him and the film to set the record straight. It’s his moral responsibility to respond to not let down the morale of his team. What say?
