Director Tharun Moorthy sets the record straight
Bollywood’s rumor mill went into overdrive recently, with reports claiming that the shoot of Mohanlal’s upcoming film ‘Athimanoharam’ had been halted due to script confusion. But the film’s director, Tharun Moorthy, has put those whispers to rest with a firm clarification.
Taking to his Instagram Stories, Moorthy addressed the speculation head-on. He wrote, “Dear friends, I am receiving many messages and calls regarding online news claiming that our shoot has been stopped due to confusion in the script. This is completely false.” The director urged fans not to spread or believe unverified information for the sake of likes, views, or reach.
Shoot on track with 78 days of filming
Moorthy revealed that the film has already been in production for 78 days in Thodupuzha. The only interruptions, he explained, have been due to weather conditions, not any creative disagreements or script issues. “We are shooting smoothly,” he assured, dismissing the baseless rumors that had been circulating online.
This clarification comes as a relief to fans of the legendary Malayalam superstar, who have been eagerly awaiting updates on the project. ‘Athimanoharam’ is one of Mohanlal’s most anticipated releases, and any news of a stall would have been disappointing for his massive fanbase.
Why false rumors hurt the film industry
False reports about film productions can cause unnecessary panic among fans and even impact the morale of the cast and crew. Moorthy’s quick response is a reminder of how easily misinformation spreads in the age of social media. “Please don’t post or spread unverified information for personal likes, views, or reach,” he appealed, echoing a sentiment many in the industry share.
For now, the shoot of ‘Athimanoharam’ is very much on track. As the team continues filming in Thodupuzha, fans can rest assured that Mohanlal’s next big project is progressing as planned. Stay tuned to Cinecrazy for more updates on this much-awaited film.
