Kamal lashes out at fan clubs

While director Kamal's Minnaminnikoottam (released on July 11 with a lot of hype and hope) continues to struggle at the box-office, Kamal held a press conference in Kochi and alleged that "certain vested interests" were out to make his film a commercial flop.

"In Ernakulam theatres where the film is running, people in large numbers come and start hooting when the titles appear. This 'hoot brigade' continues to hoot throughout the film as though they were paid money by certain people to run down the film," he said. Kamal hinted that fan clubs of certain superstars are behind the 'hoot brigade'.

Meanwhile, some reviews of Minnaminnikoottam suggest that despite its remarkably pictured songs (which proves the brilliance of the director), this film starring Narain, Jayasurya, Indrajith, Meera Jasmine and Roma in the lead roles as IT professionals, is a tiresome effort which only succeeds marginally to live up to expectations. It is also said that the movie has obvious similarities with the Tamil movie Ullam Ketkume.
