Director refutes 'secret filming' claims for CM Vijay film

Director H Vinoth has addressed persistent rumors surrounding the filming of 'Jana Nayagan,' a movie starring CM Vijay. Allegations suggested scenes were secretly filmed during a Karur event using multiple cameras. Vinoth firmly refuted these claims, stating that a brief verification of his whereabouts would have easily exposed the falsehood. He explained that he was advised against an immediate response to prevent further escalation of the controversy.

The filmmaker questioned the basis of the allegations, highlighting that his location could be confirmed through CCTV footage and mobile records. He emphasized that if actual footage had been leaked, accusers could have issued an apology. Vinoth expressed his disappointment over the personal impact, especially when individuals approached his wife with the accusations. The situation diverted attention from more significant national issues.

With these controversies now addressed, the focus shifts back to 'Jana Nayagan.' This collaboration marks H Vinoth's first with CM Vijay and is anticipated to be the actor's last project before he fully enters politics. Despite challenges such as certification delays and piracy concerns, the action drama has generated considerable fan excitement, bolstered by its ensemble cast. The film is slated for a theatrical release on July 23.
