Dulquer's Statement

A lot of people have brought to my tice that Prabhakaran joke in Varane Avashyamund is insulting to Tamizh people. It was t intentional. joke is a reference to an older Malayalam film Pattana Pravesham and is a common Meme in Kerala. It is a common name in Kerala as well so it wasn’t directed at any person living or dead as our disclaimer mentions in beginning of film. Most people reacting are doing so without watching film and are trying to spread hate. Hating on me and my director Aop we can accept. Kindly keep it to us and t our fars or senior actors from film. I apologise to all of good and kind tamizh people who felt offended. I have never intended to offend anyone through my films or my words. It’s genuinely a misunderstanding.

P.S. Some of you are being extremely abusive ,threatening, deliberately hurtful and insulting family along with us. I wish that weren’t so.

P.P.S this is original reference.
