Despite the fact that his last film ‘Raman Thediya Seethai’ was a decent hit, director Jagannath is unable to fund his forthcoming movie ‘Roja Malli Kanakambaram’, which has 11 new faces in lead roles.

“I am the director and producer of ‘Roja Malli Kanakambaram’. This is the first venture of Maruthi Movie Magic, a company floated by me. The film has three heroes and 12 heroines, with 11 of them being freshers,” he says.

On the difficulties faced by him, the filmmaker says, "But I am unable to shoot the movie due to financial constraints. Hope I could find some resource soon to complete the project."

Jagannath is an actor too. "Many offers are coming my way after my good friend Rasu Madhuravan portrayed me in a beautiful role in ‘Mayandi Kudumbathar’. I am currently acting in four movies, including Madhuravan's ‘Goripalayam’ and Ravi Maria's ‘Milaga’."
