AR Murugadoss is the one who started an unnecessary battle against Salman Khan with his degrading comments.During the Madharaasi promotions, while talking about Sikindar’s failure, Murugadoss completely blamed Salman Khan but didn’t admit his own weaknesses in screenplay and execution.

He said, “It’s not easy to shoot with Salman Khan. Even for day scenes, we had to shoot at night because he would arrive on set only after 8 PM. We are used to starting early in the mornings, but that’s not how things worked there. If a scene involved four kids, we had to shoot with them at 2 AM, even if it was supposed to be a shot of them returning from school. By then, they were already tired and often dozed off.”

But clearly, such terms could have been discussed before going on set for any film. If that terms didn’t work for him, Murugadoss could have simply said it wouldn’t suit them. Why did he proceed with the film while even putting Madharaasi on hold? Sikindar failed mainly due to poor screenplay and writing. He could have spoken about issues like story changes or creative freedom, but instead, he passed comments that directly degraded the hero

Naturally, anyone would be hurt in such a situation, and Salman Khan hit back. He countered, “Yes, I used to arrive on set around 9 PM, which caused some issues, but my rib was broken at that time. Initially, the film belonged to AR Murugadoss and Sajid Nadiadwala, but later Sajid left, and Murugadoss also stepped away to work on a South film.”

Recently, Murugadoss’s other film Madharaasi released, where the actor used to arrive on sets by 6 AM. It’s a much bigger film — and an even bigger blockbuster — than Sikindar.

After all this, many Tamil fans are endorsing Murugadoss and blindly targeting Salman Khan, completely missing the logic of who actually started this battle — and who made the first degrading comments.
