Ajith movie in trouble as financier moves court-2013

CHENNAI: Signalling trouble for Ajith-starrer 'Arrambam', 

scheduled for a Diwali release, a film financier has moved 

the Madras high court against its release saying its producer 

had not yet returned the money borrowed from her. 

Justice V Ramasubramanian, before whom the petition of B 


Rajeswari of Shenoy Nagar came up for admission on Friday,

 has issued notice to the film's producer A M Rathnam. 


The petitioner said Rathnam, who owns Sri Surya Movies, 


had borrowed 1.5 crore from them in May 2005 to produce a 

film titled 'Kaedi'. Though he was to repay the amount with 

interest by 2006, he could not settle the debt. Later, he 

signed a new agreement to repay the sum with a higher 

interest rate. In 2006, another agreement was signed by 

them during the production of 'Nandalala' and Rathnam 

agreed to return the amount with 36% annual interest. As on 

October 10, 2013, Rathnam owed 4.5 crore to the family, the 




petitioner said.
