Superstar Rajinikanth and Ilayathalapathy Vijay are the stars with huge box office command. With such a big stature the responsibility and risks are also high. When their films make heavy loss these two actors more than anyone else will be targeted and the distributors and theatre owners/exhibitors will seek compensation from them.

P.Kannappan who is an experienced film producers, distributor and also an exhibitor raises a valid question to his own folks regarding this, in his interview to IndiaGlitz.

"I don't support this practice. Rajinikanth and Vijay are the only two people who are targeted every time when their films make loss. I don't know why not the distributors and exhibitors go to other actors/stars when the respective actor's films incur losses. Kamal Haasan is the only exception in this issue. Because he has almost stopped doing films for other producers. Either profit or loss that goes to him only. But all other actors get away before three months of release after getting their full salary. No one asks any compensation from other actors. I request them to ask compensation from all heroes when their films make loss instead of targeting Rajinikanth and Vijay alone."
