Gautham Vasudev Menon is a popular name in Tamil cinema. He enjoys a strong fan following because of his relatable brand of storytelling. In a recent interview with Behindwoods, the filmmaker said that he is ¡®upset¡¯ with Suriya for rejecting Dhruva Natchathiram, his ambitious spy thriller. He further said that the actor ¡®should have trusted¡¯ him as they previously collaborated with him for Kaakha Kaakha and Vaaranam Aayiram.?
¡±Suriya shouldn't have a second thought about doing Dhruva Natchathiram, because we made Khakha &? Vaaranam Aayiram? and so he could have trusted me. I tried to convince my best, but he didn't agree. I'm really upset that Suriya denied the film," he said.?
His comments created a buzz on social media and several netizens took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to express their opinion on the matter. Most of them supported GVM and agreed with his statement.
Some of them also trolled Suriya for choosing Kanguva, which flopped at the box office, instead of Dhruva Natchathiram.?
