Gautham Meno - Elred in legal conflict |
The legal war between the director Gautham Menon and producer Elred Kumar took a new twist when Gautham releasd a written plea to the media and Kollywood recently.
Sorces says, Elred who produced several movies of Gautham, filed a case over several issues including repayment of financial losses around 20 crore.
As per the sources, Elred said,"I cannot reveal details of the court case as the matter is subjudice as advised by my lawyer. All I can tell you is that I am hurt — I am hurt by the fact that Gautham alleges I am harassing him because I took the legal route. How can seeking relief through the court of law be termed harassment? I have never even had a verbal argument with him in all the time we have worked together."
Elred ecev said,"I was advised not to prevent Gautham from continuing to direct and hinder his work and I have not done that. As for attaching his house, we have not done any such thing. There is a property he bought recently and we are seeking to attach that only. Why will we try to attach his house?"
The producer finally left by saying "We have all the evidence required for the cases filed and I am very confident that the judgment will be in our favour and we will win the case. The truth will come out."
It came to know that the director is trying to create sympathy with the media and Kollywood.He owes many producers money but a large amount to the producer Elred.
