“Everyone knew Jayalathitaa’s story and it didn’t create any traction among public. Even AIADMK people have not come to watch the film, which has surprised many. In Tamil Nadu, this film’s lifetime gross would be Rs 5 crore at best,” a popular producer and distributor, who did not want to be named, told indianexpress.com. “A lifetime collection of Rs 5 crore means only about 5 lakh people would have watched this film all over Tamil Nadu. And it is not 1 per cent of the state’s population.”

Anyone with an iota of business sense would have known to choose a Tamil heroine -maybe even a newbie if they wanted the film to be accepted in Tamil Nadu. The director and the rest of the cast and crew could be from anywhere. But the face of Jayalalitha has to be Tamil. And c'mon it's time for a new face from South India to be in Bollywood after Deepika.

Jaya wanted Aishwarya to play her. Ash already played a version of Jayalalithaa in Iruvar. It would have been fitting to see her in the role.

Regarding the new face from South to Bollywood, I hope you have taken notice of Samantha.

Ash could have managed the latter day Jayalalitha in grace, dignity and sheer arrogance. But she could not have played the teenage Jaya either. Yes, Samantha and Family Man are on my radar.
