It can be noted here that the producer of Mankatha Dhayanidhi Alagiri is the son of DMK strongman and Union Fertilizer Minister Alagiri. So the trade feels that the change of guard at the state level and AIADMK ruling has been the strong reason behind Mankatha audio and the film being postponed continuously. Finally this issue turned as a negative block for the producer as there is no buyer to distribute the film in Tamil Nadu, while Kerala, Karnataka and Overseas deal has almost been finalized.

In Tamilnadu alone Mankatha has 85 percent of market share and it would be commercially a risk to make official the release date of the film without finalizing the theatres and distributors in the state.

Ajith is said to very close supporter of Chief Minister & AIADMK supremo Jayalalithaa and now the trade feels that Ajith is the only source of solution for a safe release of Mankatha in Tamil Nadu.

However and whatever might be the cause we along with fans are waiting for the release of Mankatha.
