Why Nelson Is Still Angry with Amaran Director Rajkumar Periyasamy*

Nelson, a rising star in Tamil cinema, has become one of the industry's top directors in just a few years, helming major films with stars like Vijay and Rajinikanth. However, his journey to success wasn't easy. After struggling for years, he finally got his big break with Kolamavu Kokila, followed by hits like Doctor, Beast, and the recent blockbuster Jailer, which cemented his place as a leading director.

In addition to directing, Nelson also ventured into production with the film Bloody Becker, which, despite mixed reviews, proved profitable. Around the same time, his close friends Sivakarthikeyan and Rajkumar Periyasamy released Amaran.

However, a video of Nelson sharing his anger towards Amaran director Rajkumar Periyasamy has gone viral. The two have been friends for years, but Nelson’s anger stems from an old incident. During an award ceremony, Rajkumar helped Nelson take a photo with the legendary director Mani Ratnam. However, the next day, Rajkumar hacked Nelson’s phone, erasing the photo, which left Nelson furious. Even today, Nelson remains upset when the topic comes up, as revealed during a recent award ceremony.
