Rajinikanth can't be blamed for 'Lingaa' losses: SIFAA

Chennai, Jan 9: The South Indian Film Artistes' Association (SIFAA) aka Nadigar Sangam said Friday it was "unfair" for the distributors of "Lingaa" to hold superstar Rajinikanth responsible for the film's losses, instead of the producers. A group of distributors who have decided to go on fast demanding compensation for the losses incurred in Rajinikanth-starrer "Lingaa", clarified Thursday they're doing so to get the attention of the superstar. "The success of any film lies in the hands of the audience. Just like every other business, loss and gain is also part of film business. 'Lingaa' was one of the highly anticipated films and was expected to do well. But it's unfair to approach the hero of the film for losses," read a statement from SIFAA.
