Tamil Director KS Ravikumar Mocks Balakrishna, Hansika Laughs: Netizens Not Happy

Tamil filmmaker KS Ravikumar has found himself in a controversy after a video of him mocking Balakrishna went viral.

Recalling an incident during the shooting of their movie 'Ruler', KS Ravikumar said, "Balakrishna dislikes laughter on set and easily gets irritated. Once, my assistant Saravanan moved a fan towards Balayya sir, causing his wig to shift slightly. This angered Balakrishna, and he was on the verge of slapping Saravanan until I stepped in,"

The 'Padaiyappa' director imitated Balakrishna's mannerisms and claimed that Balayya might behave aggressively even if someone smiled at him. The incident occurred at an event related to Hansika Motwani's upcoming movie 'Guardian' on Wednesday evening.

As KS Ravikumar made these comments, people at the event including Hansika Motwani were spotted laughing. However, the Tamil filmmaker's comments have not gone well with the netizens.

Journalist Jeevi, on X, said, "NBK can do with big directors as they are ready for him any time, yet he has given chances to faded out Tamil directors like KS Ravi Kumar and Vasu at one point time of his career (pre covid days). And this KS Ravi Kumar has no loyalty and makes fun of him. Very sad!"

Second user commented, "Director #KSRavikumar making fun of #Balakrishna #Balayya is just in bad taste... expected much better from #Kollywood."

Coming to Hansika's movie, it is directed by Koogle Kuttappan director duo Sabari-Guru Saravanan. 'Guardian' has music by Sam CS and cinematography by KA Shaktivel.
