There has been a lot of uncertainty over the release of ‘Mark Antony’ in the past couple of days. The movie was in legal trouble but the Madras High Court gave respite to the movie’s unit and the film is hitting the screens on 15th September as announced before. Vishal and producer Vinod Kumar announced this news on social media. It is releasing on the 15th in Tamil and Telugu while the Hindi version is arriving on the 22nd of September.
As we know, the Madras High Court gave a stay on the film which made everyone wonder whether this movie arrives on time or not. After listening to the arguments from all the sides, the judge lifted the ‘Stay’.
Going into details, Vishal took a loan of 21 crores for his production banner from financier Anbu. According to the arrangement, Lyca company settled Anbu’s amount and they will be distributing all of Vishal’s films till he repays the taken money. Vishal ignored this deal and released ‘Samanyudu’ movie without Lyca banner. Lyca Production banner went to court and Vishal is now ordered to pay a fixed deposit of 15 crores. But Vishal did not pay this money and during the arguments, he claimed that he faced a loss of 18 crores which is why he couldn’t return the money.
After enquiring about Vishal’s economic details, the High Court agreed to the Special Court’s decision and demanded him to pay the 15 crores money. They banned all kinds of releases from Vishal Film Factory in theatres or OTT platforms till then. Now that the case is dismissed, everything is clear for ‘Mark Antony’ to hit the screens.
