‘Enthiran’ Telugu rights not sold yet: Sun Pictures

Even as reports claiming that an Andhra Pradesh-based distributor has bagged the Telugu dubbing rights of Superstar Rajinikanth starrer ‘Enthiran’ for  Rs 30 crore, producers of the film Sun Pictures has clarified that no such deal had been made so far.

Also, two persons were arrested in Chennai on Tuesday for allegedly cheating the Tollywood distributor, Sri Tirupathi Tirumala Films, with forged documents and collecting from them Rs two crore as advance.

The arrested were identified as Udhayakumar, a production manager and his accomplice Surendran. Both allegedly forged a letter head of Sun Pictures, and “sold the Telugu rights of Enthiran”, it is said.

“We have not sold any rights of ‘Enthiran’, be it Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, overseas or satellite rights, to anyone. How could a production manager be authorised to strike a deal? We have filed a complaint against Udhayakumar and his friend,” Sun Pictures COO Hansraj Saxena has said.
