Director Lingusamy had started his career with the family entertainer Anandham and after the
blockbuster success he went on to score another hit with Run and his career made a superb takeoff off but his next
movie with Thala
ajith Ji became a failure and stopped his career.
However he made a return with Sandakozhi and was later bogged down by Bheema but again after that he returned with Paiya and Vettai, only to lose it all with Anjaan followed by Sandakozhi 2. Now the maker is set to direct
lawrence in the
remake of Rangasthalam.
The reason behind Lingusamy getting down from top heroes to
lawrence is that the
director who is also a
producer had got 1 crore finance for producing the
movie Enni Aezhu Naal with
karthi and
samantha and the
movie never took off and with
court pressure to settle the money soon, Lingusamy desperately has signed
rangasthalam remake to settle dues. It should be noted that he is the first
director to show
samantha in Bikini on the screen. He showed her in a bikini in the
movie 'Anjaan'.
