Director Bala has found the pulse of the audience not with his movies but with controversial teasers that make everyone speak their opinion and lead to multiple court cases.


When he released Paradesi teaser in which he was beating actors with a sharp stick, people were shocked and it led to the pre-release hype but the movie failed miserably at the box office due to lack of commercial elements and a very melodramatic narrative.

The same happened for Naan Kadavul in which Arya’s Aghori avatar was considered the biggest feat. He was literally pushed to be an aghori for 2 years in Kasi before the shooting began and even had to answer many questions during his flight travels. In the end, the movie’s gore ensured no one could fully watch it as it was deeply disturbing.


Once again, Bala did it with an amazing teaser for Vishal Arya starrer Avan Ivan that was more boring than fun throughout its run time except for the amazing star cast which the director manages to pull off every time.


Thara Thappatai needs no mention because Ilaiyaraja’s background score made it a great promising movie with its teaser but once again turned out to be a box office disaster. Director Bala is talented but he hasn’t had a solid hit in many years and Naachiyar just led to more controversies, not a hit yet.
