Actor and politician Khushbu Sundar has addressed her husband Sundar C’s departure from the highly anticipated film featuring Tamil cinema icons Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan. The director had initially been associated with the major project but later withdrew, prompting considerable speculation about the circumstances behind his decision.

Speaking during an interview with Behindwoods, Khushbu declined to reveal the reason for Sundar C’s exit. She indicated that the matter concerned her husband, Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan, suggesting that any discussions surrounding the filmmaker’s departure should remain between the three individuals directly involved.

When the interviewer suggested that something appeared unusual about the development, Khushbu maintained her position and refused to comment further. She said that she should not speak about the matter, avoiding speculation or public criticism while respecting the private nature of the conversations connected to the project.

Although she did not explain what led to Sundar C’s withdrawal, Khushbu reportedly praised the dignified manner in which her husband handled the situation. Her remarks reflected support for the director while making it clear that she was unwilling to disclose details or contribute to rumours surrounding his exit.

The film has since been officially titled Dharman, with Ashwath Marimuthu taking over as director. Sundar C’s departure represented a significant change for the project, as the filmmaker had been presented with the rare opportunity to direct Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan together in a major cinematic production.

The development continues to generate attention because of the involvement of two of Indian cinema’s most celebrated actors. However, Khushbu’s restrained response has left the exact reason for Sundar C’s departure undisclosed, with no detailed public explanation offered by those directly connected to the matter.
