Earlier, the spokesperson of Bigil told Silverscreen that such claims are quite normal. “Without even knowing the story, how can the rights be claimed? Football-based films are made in Hindi, unique movies on Kabbadi are being made. Not all can come forward and say the story is theirs. Everyone has an imagination, and sometimes coincidences happen.”
KP Selva’s noted film are Amaravathi, Karnaa, Pooveli, James Pandu, Unnaruge Naan Irundhal, Student Number 1 and Naan Avanillai. He introduced Ajith Kumar through his second film Amaravathi.
Thalapathy 63 and now titled Bigil is a sports drama with Vijay playing the lead role of a Tamil Nadu Women's football team's coach in the movie.
