In a statement, it was said that the row follows non-payment of money spent for making the film and the non-allocation the distribution rights. Shaik Abdul Mohammad, head of Emerald Projects, had financed Rs.2.87 crore for the production of ‘Autonagar Surya’ to R R Movie Makers’ managing director Phaneendra Reddy.
Both had agreed upon the film’s exhibition rights in Guntur, Prakasam and Nellore districts. After Reddy failed to return the amount, even as dates of film’s release were announced, Mohammad approached a court, which, in an injunction order, directed on March 5 that the release be stopped.
He again approached the court following a recent announcement of the film’s release on June 27.
