Dhruva Natchathiram’s financial woes

It is understood that Gautham Vasudev Menon was issued a court order on November 23, which mandated him to pay an advance of Rs 2.40 crores before 10:30 AM on November 24, to ensure the smooth release of the film. The court order was with regard to the repayment of money to the producer All In Pictures, for a film that did not materialize.

Additionally, the satellite and digital rights of the film have not been purchased yet, and the amount would be valued in crores. This adversely affected the pre-release business of the film.
