In his long interview to a popular Tamil News Channel actor Kamal Haasan alleged that how the rulerrs of the state was responsible and the acting force behind the struggles he faced during the release of 'Viswaroopam' in 2013.
Now he has recounted the pain he endured during those times again. " 'Viswaroopam' was banned by the Government. We got the ban vacated through the court. But the then ruling Government banned the film again. Only after the swelling of people's support, the ban was removed. My financial stability was shattered. I was forced to mortgage my properties. I have never evaded tax but I lost Rs.60 crores during that time. Only the support of people keeps me alive till now."
Regarding 'Viswaroopam 2' the long delayed sequel to the 2013 blockbuster, the Ulaganayagan said "I hope 'Viswaroopam 2' does not face any hardship like its predecessor. But we cannot forget that anything can happen."
