Maruthi and SKN built their careers in the industry step by step by delivering successful films. Maruthi, as a director, and SKN, as a creative producer, got their biggest opportunity with Prabhas’s The Raja Saab. They invested a lot of time and effort into the project, but the film failed to impress audiences content-wise and ended up as a disastrous result at the box office.
Failures are not new to anyone; everyone has to face them at some point in their career. However, more than the failure itself, what is seriously damaging Maruthi and SKN are the allegations being circulated. There has been strong buzz in the industry that Maruthi and SKN misused production funds amounting to several crores. Not only within the industry, but many media outlets are also directly or indirectly spreading these claims and targeting them. This is severely affecting their image and could impact their careers massively.
Both have remained silent for a long time after the film’s release. However, continuing this silence may not help, as the rumours are spreading like wildfire day by day. They need to respond and clarify the situation, as these allegations are damaging their reputation among both industry circles and audiences.
