Disaster Re-release: Director Admits Past Blunders

Suriya’s Anjaan directed by Lingusamy released in 2014 and now returns to theatres worldwide with a re-edited version on November 28. You will once again see it on the big screen, this time with changes made after years of feedback.

With only days left for the re-release, Lingusamy spoke about the backlash he received in 2014. His comments are now viral. He recalled how Trollers targeted Anjaan heavily and said he stopped fearing criticism because he faced abuse for years.

He admitted he rushed the editing due to release pressure and accepted that Anjaan carried mistakes. He said he lacked time to refine the film before release, and this version reflects what he always wanted to improve.

Many users online believe the re-release is unnecessary. They argue that Anjaan stands among the most trolled films and feel a new release will not change its image. Trollers continue to remind the past, even now.

Some feel the re-release may hurt Suriya’s long-time fans who still see Anjaan as a turning point in his box-office downfall. For them, the film holds bitter memories, and reopening them seems pointless.

Even with negative reactions, the new version of Anjaan hits theatres on November 28. The release will test whether the edited cut earns fresh acceptance or if the past repeats. You now wait to see if this version works better.
