When director AR Murugadas, who gave a blockbuster film like ‘Ghajini’ with Aamir Khan in 2008, announced ‘Alexander’ with Salman Khan, people hoped that another blockbuster was coming. However, ‘Alexander’ could not succeed in showing a charisma like Ghajini and failed at the box office. Now about four months after the release of Alexander, director AR Murugadas spoke on the film’s flop and made a shocking statement.
Murugadas told the language a big reason
During the promotion of his upcoming film ‘Madarasi’, Murugadas, while talking on the failure of Salman Khan’s film, explained the reason for not understanding Hindi. He said that when we make films in our mother tongue, it gives us strength. We know what is happening here. Nowadays a trend is going on and the audience suddenly joins that trend. When we change the language, we do not know what the youth are likeing in that language. We just need a script so that we can believe it. For once, I can take Telugu movies, but Hindi may not be effective for us because after writing the script we translate it into English. Then it is translated into Hindi.
Surprisingly Murugadas’s statement
The director further said that we can only guess what they are saying, but we do not know what is happening properly. When you make a film in an unknown language and place, it seems as if you are handicapped. As if you do not have hands. I am confident that our strength depends on where and from which culture we come.
This statement was shocking for many people as ‘Alexander’ is not the only Hindi film directed by the Tamil filmmaker. He is also the producer of Akshay Kumar’s 2014 film ‘Holiday: A Soldier is Never of Duty’, who received a good response from people like ‘Ghajini’. ‘Holiday’ also earned Rs 180 crore in a budget of Rs 50 crore.

People trolled Murugadas
People asked him questions on this statement of Murugadas. On the social site X, a user commented, “Then why do you come under the greed of payment and direct Hindi movies?” Another user wrote, “Who forced him to do this strange work?” In other comments, it was written, “So how did Holiday and Ghajini become blockbusters? If the story does not have power, then there is no need to make such excuses.”
