Aishwarya Rajinkanth made a return to directorial duties after 9 long years. She made her debut with Dhanush and Shruti Haasan starter ‘3’ in 2012 and later directed a crime comedy Vai Raja Vai in 2014. She has been away from the director’s chair till Lal Salaam which was released recently.
Lal Salaam is a total washout in Telugu and is doing below-par business in Tamil with average word of mouth and reviews. The film featured Superstar Rajinikanth in an extended cameo and was released without any hype. During the promotion of Lal Salaam, Aishwarya made a rather interesting comment about the result of her debut film ‘3’.
She said the blockbuster response to Kolaveri song was shocking to everyone and the song’s massive success overshadowed the movie’s content. The content of the film was so serious and the song set different expectations for the film, which resulted in the audience’s disappointment.
“The movie received a way better reception during its recent re-release & telecast because the song’s magic had worn off and I am happy that it helped Anirudh’s career,” said Aishwarya.
This statement has surprised many as music was the biggest USP of 3. Aishwarya instead of blaming weak script and screenplay blaming Kolaveri song has not gone down well with many.
