Can SK Save from Trolling or Next Mani & Shankar?

After Sikandar, director AR Murugadoss is under heavy trolling ahead of his upcoming film Madharaasi. The movie is scheduled for a worldwide release on September 5th. Many are curious whether Madharaasi can help him silence the trolls and stage a strong comeback.

Murugadoss earlier delivered a disaster with Sikandar this year, but the trailer of Madharaasi has impressed some Kollywood fans. They believe it looks like a promising action thriller. Still, the director has drawn criticism on social media with his recent comments.

His statements against actor Salman Khan, blaming him for Sikandar’s failure, and remarks about directors of 1000 crore films being mere entertainers, have angered many. This has fueled negativity around Madharaasi even before its release.

Industry trackers suggest that if Madharaasi succeeds, the hatred will vanish and Murugadoss will regain momentum in his career. But if it fails, he could face the same trolling that Mani Ratnam, Shankar, Karthik Subbaraj, and Lokesh Kanagaraj faced this year.

Kollywood fans have warned that even celebrated directors faced trolling after setbacks, like Lokesh Kanagaraj with Coolie. Murugadoss now faces a similar test. Expectations for Madharaasi remain low, which could work in his favour if the film delivers on release day.
