Now, speaking about it, Manchu Vishnu came up with this powerful comments.\r\nHe said Many times, filmmakers are held to ransom in this generation,&rdquo; he said, visibly frustrated. &ldquo;There are people with vested interests who want to come into the limelight or push a hidden agenda by attacking filmmakers.&rdquo; These aren&rsquo;t your average movie-release jitters.\r\nHe added &ldquo;They wait until the last minute&mdash;usually a week or two before the premiere&mdash;and then suddenly show up with objections or legal notices. If they had a real issue, why didn&rsquo;t they raise it when we began shooting?&rdquo;\r\nHe continued &ldquo;There should be one day in the week where it&rsquo;s legal to beat the living daylights out of these idiots,&rdquo; and continued &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t want to pull out my hair &mdash; I just want to backhand slap them. That should be legal. Just once a week.&rdquo; And he&rsquo;s serious about starting a movement for change. &ldquo;I think I should begin representing filmmakers to the government and lawmakers. We need protection. In today&rsquo;s world, everything offends someone, and a few loud voices hijack the whole narrative.&rdquo;\r\nHe went on record stating &ldquo;Just because a handful of people are upset doesn&rsquo;t mean they represent a religion or a nation. There are psychos, robbers, and idiots in every walk of life. Don&rsquo;t define a community based on that.&rdquo;\r\n

\r\nThe highly anticipated film Thug Life, which marked the reunion of legendary actor Kamal Haasan and director Mani Ratnam after almost 37 years, has failed to impress audiences and critics alike. Despite the iconic actor-director combination, the film\'s predictable storyline and lack of depth in characters and situations led to its downfall. The film, which also stars Ali Fazal, Trisha, and Mahesh Manjrekar, was expected to be a masterpiece, but it severely disappointed fans and critics.\r\nMani Ratnam has issued an apology to fans who were expecting another iconic film like Nayakan from the Kamal Haasan-Mani Ratnam duo. The director acknowledged that the audience had different expectations from what they delivered. He stated that the issue was not just heightened expectations but rather a misconception about what they would deliver. Mani Ratnam expressed that the audience anticipated a product vastly different from what they offered.\r\nThe film\'s poor performance has also led to Kamal Haasan taking a break from acting, according to a close associate. The actor was reportedly affected by the film\'s immediate backlash upon its release. Although Haasan has not officially announced a break, it seems that he is not looking to take on new projects soon.\r\nDespite the failure of Thug Life, fans are hoping that Mani Ratnam will make a comeback with a solid film. The director is currently busy with the screenplay for his next film, presumably a romantic drama. With his experience and talent, it\'s possible that Mani Ratnam will bounce back with a film that will impress audiences and critics alike. Only time will tell if the veteran director can redeem himself and prove his detractors wrong.\r\n
