Director Jude Antony spoke openly about the remarks made against actor Antony Varghese. The response is in Manorama News. Jude Antony accused Antony Varghese of taking ten lakh rupees from the producer and withdrawing and was reluctant to return the money. ‘I still believe that there is truth in what I said except that the words I used upset his family. He backed out 18 days before the start of a film, the producer and the technicians were on the way, the producer couldn’t enter the house. I made it clear to the director that I will tell you if your film is packed,’ said Jude Antony. When asked if Dulquer Salmaan would have reacted like this if Anthony Varghese had been in place of Anthony Varghese, Judd had replied that Dulquer would not have reacted like this.
Jude Antony openly said that Antony Varghese withdrew from the recently released film Falimi because he did not like the script. The money was returned after sending a lawyer notice. It was a film I was set to produce. Whether he is poor or rich, take someone else’s money and eat it. Jude Anthony says that he sees no reason in returning the lawyer’s notice and if he goes further into this matter, Anthony Varghese will become a bad person.
And the director openly admitted that social media posts are often humbling. Sometimes there is truth in what is said. But I do everything in a hurry. That’s how it is in life. If I feel like doing something, I will say that I have done it. I will post what comes to mind very soon. For an example, when Om Shanti Oshana got the state award, why did Nivin Pauly get the state award, why did Nazriya get the state award? I posted as a reply. He is a very suffering person. I meant in the post that it is enough to add it as a gift from God. When he came to type, at the end he added that if there is any further protest, go drink goat’s milk and sleep. The last line has lost all relevance to what was said before it. For a while everyone called him Anthony the Goat. It’s my own stupid mistakes.
