Filmmakers often do fake about the budget and collections of their films. The budgets are hyped to showcase the films as Mega Budget movies while collections are inflated to make them hits. Filmmakers never admit them for obvious reasons.
Fans do fight day and night arguing which star is more great. Tamil Director Selvaraghavan, however, admitted faking the budget of his Aayirathil Oruvan on Twitter. He also admitted that he and the film had been at the receiving end due to that.
“The actual budget of #aayirathiloruvan was 18 crores. But we decided to announce it as a 32 crore film to hype it as a mega budget film. What stupidity! Even though the film managed to collect the actual budget it was regarded as average! Learnt not to lie whatever the odds are! (Sic),” he tweeted.
This is a proof that fans of any industry particularly from South that numbers always needs to be taken with a pinch of salt.
