In the 1980s, when Rajinikanth became the top star of tamil cinema with successive hits, some actresses refused to act opposite him. Those actresses are none other than Lata and Jayalalithaa. MGR's contract was also a reason behind their refusal to act with Rajini. Let's see more about it in this collection. In 1972, mgr started a party called AIADMK but continued to act in films even though he was busy in politics. So in 1974, he was going to make a trip to a country related to cinema. mgr then met the press, in which mgr talked about the agreement between Lata and himself. Actress Lata cannot act in any film without obtaining their permission. mgr said that even if she commits to acting like that, she should give priority to our film.
MGR signed this contract when Lata was acting in the film Ulagam Sutrum Valiban. It is in this situation that actress Latha got the chance to act opposite Rajini. However, due to MGR's contract, she could not act in Rajini's film. It was widely talked about at that time that MGR's deadlock was the reason for this. Actress jayalalitha has data-faced a similar problem. She also got an opportunity to act with Rajini. However, it was widely talked about at that time that MGR's intervention was behind his non-performance. But jayalalithaa herself has responded to this controversy.
In 1979, jayalalitha gave a question-and-answer interview in the magazine. jayalalithaa replied to the question of whether the news of refusing to act with Rajini is true, it is true that she refused to act. She said that there was no other reason, she did not act because the role they gave her was not satisfactory. Meanwhile, in 1980, there were reports that jayalalithaa was struggling with no film opportunities. jayalalitha had written a letter of denial to the newspaper that published the news. In that, she did not struggle to act again in cinema. She really got many good opportunities to act in films.
