Gayathri replaces Meenakshi in Villangam

Gayathri, who acted in SAC’s Touring Talkies replaces Meenakshi in the upcoming flick Villangam, which has actor Nandha in the lead. According to the filmmakers, Meenakshi behaved unprofessionally — walking out of the movie without informing the unit, and not turning up to shoots after a considerable amount had been canned. Upset with the financial losses incurred by her, the producer has lodged a complaint against Meenakshi with the Producers’ Council. Ra Na Saravanan who directs the movie claims that he has handled a sensitive theme.

“In our society, a man has to prove his innocence even when a woman commits the mistake. Why this disparity? It revolves around the thesis that if two children are born to a couple, they should not be allowed by the court to divorce.”
Bharadwaj has made a comeback after a long gap and scored music for the film. Sonia Agarwal is also a part of the movie.
