I don't write dialogues with double meaning, and if something appears that way, it's only in the viewer's perception, not my intention." He insisted that from scripting to shooting, he takes care to avoid vulgarity and inappropriate humor.
'No double meanings, no vulgar shots,' says the director.
During the chat with Galatta, he further elaborated on his filmmaking choices, especially regarding glamour and visual presentation.
"There may be glamour, but it depends on how you shoot it. Even a saree can look inappropriate if shot from the wrong angle. I always want my visuals to be decent enough to watch with my family," he explained. Sundar C also highlighted that he has never included item numbers or sexual violence in his films, reinforcing his claim of maintaining family-friendly content.
Fans call out contradictions with old scenes and dialogues.
However, his remarks triggered a wave of trolling on social media, with fans and critics posting clips from his previous films that appeared to contradict his claims. Many netizens pointed out notable double-meaning dialogues and suggestive scenes from films like Kalakalappu, Aranmanai, and Thalainagaram, stating that Sundar C's statement doesn't hold up. One user sarcastically wrote, 'Family-friendly? Then what was that swimming pool scene in Aranmanai?' while another posted a clip of a double entendre from Kalakalappu with the caption, 'Just our imagination, I guess?'
