Vijay's The Greatest of All Time movie's director, Venkat Prabhu, has been the talk of the town on social media for the past few days after he gave reasons for the failures of his last two movies in the Telugu states.
In a recent interview, Venkat Prabhu revealed that he initially wrote the script for the Custody movie as a caste-based story but later changed the core idea after being told that caste-based movies wouldn't work for Telugu audiences.

He also mentioned that his movie The Greatest of All Time with Vijay failed in the Telugu states due to CSK references in the film.
Many people on social media responded to his comments, stating that both movies didn't perform well in the Telugu states because they simply weren't good enough to be enjoyed.

However, instead of acknowledging his mistakes, Venkat Prabhu provided unacceptable excuses for the failures of his movies in interviews. People on social media suggested that he should first focus on making a good movie and, if it doesn't succeed, then provide reasons.
Venkat Prabhu is currently preparing the script for his next movie with Sivakarthikeyan. Let's see how the movie shapes up and whether it resonates with audiences in other states upon its release.
