Vijay Sethupathy’s latest film idharkuthane
aasaipattai balakumara (Hereafter
known as IAB) has recorded a steep fall in tickets sales
at counters and booking websites as soon as rumors of it being an intelligent
film started doing rounds on internet. The booking window of the film opened with
huge response and was going at full swing until the tragedy struck.
It all began with an SMS that
started doing rounds saying that IAB is Vijay Sethupathy’s first attempt at
thought provoking cinema with a powerful script that touches your soul. The SMS
spread like a wildfire and contents of it also got circulated on social media,
resulting in reversal of fortunes for the movie.
The producers of IAB have termed it
a conspiracy and a cheap attempt by some jealous people to damage Vijay
Sethupathy’s growing image thereby affecting the outcome of the film.
“How can people even believe that
this movie would make sense? Haven’t they seen the trailers of IAB and haven’t
they heard how many lives the trailer alone has claimed so far? Or do they
watch trailers also leaving their brains behind?” asked an angry distributor.
Apart from producers and
distributors, Vijay Sethupathy fans are also unhappy.
“After NKPK, Pizza,
and Soodhukuavum, I had got my brains surgically removed so that I can
enjoy IAB like a normal cine viewer. Now I just don’t recall where I
have kept it. How irresponsible and heartless of Vijay to disappoint his fans
and come out with a smart film like this. Now how on earth am I supposed to
enjoy it without brains,” said a fan who has switched over his allegiance to Siva
Karthikeyan with the hope that he won’t disappoint.
Meanwhile Vijay Sethupathy is trying
to pacify his fans and asking them to not believe in rumors of IAB being
a wonderfully scripted film and assured them of it being even shittier than all
his previous films clubbed together.
“Moolai ellam vendaam, summa enjoy
pannu idharkuthane aasaipattai balakumara,” the actor reassured his fans.
To make sure the damage is minimum, Vijay
Sethupathy has requested SUN TV’s Top Ten Movies to watch IAB and review
it and give it as poor rating as they can. As per sources, the producers have
promised to take care of all medical expenses that would be required for the
reviewer’s treatment thereafter.
He has further requested another
critic magazine Anadha Vikatan to strictly stay away from reviewing this film
lest they do some more damage by giving it a 4 stars rating.
