The failure of Suriya's Kanguva paved the way for a lot of controversies in Kollywood, with many celebrities sharing their opinions about it.
In a recent interview, Director Ameer stated that if Kanguva was destroyed by the negative campaigns of a political party in Tamil Nadu, then why did it fail in other states and languages as well?

He acknowledged that the team put in a lot of effort into the movie, but effort alone is not enough for a film's success; it also depends on factors like audience preferences. He added that even Kamal Haasan's movies have often failed despite the immense effort he invested in them.
Following the failure of Kanguva, the producer's council issued a ban on journalists conducting reviews with audiences after the show. However, Ameer argued that this is not a solution and could lead to further backlash.

Due to this ban, theatre owners have stopped allowing journalists to enter theatres, which has led to recently released medium-budget movies going unnoticed, Ameer noted.
Ameer's statements have now gone viral, with many people sharing their responses, agreeing that he is 100% correct. They assert that banning reviewers is not the only solution for a movie's failure, and directors should focus on creating quality films to avoid such outcomes.
