Court order to attach Sivaji's house recalled
Chennai: Madras high court on Monday recalled its order attaching house of the late actor Sivaji Ganesan in a case relating to default on a loan by his son, Ram Kumar, and grandson, Dusshyanth. Justice Abdul Quddhose recalled the order while allowing a plea moved by actor Prabhu claiming that his brother doesn't have any stake in their father's T Nagar house, ' Annai Illam '. On March 3, the court passed the attachment order on a plea moved by Dhanabakkiam Enterprises to execute a decree in its favour. According to Dhanabakkiam Enterprises, a loan of 3.75 crore was issued to Eshan Productions, represented by Dusshyant and his wife for producing a film 'Jagajala Killadi'. As Dusshyant failed to repay the loan, arbitration proceedings were initiated . A decree was issued in favour of Dhanabakkiam Enterprises to exploit all rights in connection with the film. Since the film could not be completed, the arbitral decree could not be executed by Dhanabakkiam Enterprises, prompting it to move an execution petition to attach Sivaji's house, in which Dusshyant's father, Ram Kumar, holds a share. It wanted the court to execute the arbitral award dated May 4, 2024. During the course of the hearing, the court was informed that Ram Kumar does not hold any stake in the house, and it wholly belongs to Prabhu.

Sivaji Ganesan's bungalow row: Madras High Court lifts attachment order
The Madras High Court on Monday (April 21, 2025) raised an attachment order passed with respect to thespian 'Sivaji' Ganesan alias V.C. Ganesan's bungalow named 'Annai Illam' at T. Nagar in Chennai, due to a loan dispute involving his grandson R.G. Dusshyanth, son of G. Ramkumar, and his wife Abirami Dusshyanth. Justice Abdul Quddhose raised the attachment order after the thespian's younger son G. Prabhu filed an application stating that he was now the sole owner of the entire bungalow, spread over 53,240 and that neither his elder brother Mr. Ramkumar nor other siblings had any right whatsoever over the property. The judge agreed with the submissions of senior counsel P.S. Raman, assisted by Sakthi Aatharsh, representing Mr. Prabhu, and directed the T. Nagar Sub-Registrar to remove all entries made in the encumbrance certificate related to the property, pursuant to the attachment order passed in February this year. A private firm named Dhanabakkiam Enterprises, represented by its partner Akshay Sarin, had approached the High Court, demanding ₹9.39 crore (including the principal amount of ₹3.74 crore, along with 30% interest, working out to over ₹5 crore till July 31, 2023) from Mr. Dusshyanth, his wife, and father. The finance firm claimed that Mr. Ramkumar had also signed the agreement entered into between the private firm and Mr. Dusshyanth's Eshan Productions in December 2017, for extending a loan to produce a movie titled Jagajaala Killadi, and therefore, the elder son's share in Annai Illam must be attached to recover the loan. The High Court had in February this year ordered the attachment of 13,310 sq. ft. out of the total extent of around 53,240 sq. ft of the property; Mr. Prabhu had immediately rushed to the court to raise the attachment.
