The allegations of plagiarism on director A.R. Murugadoss by Varun Rajendran has become a raging issue with criticism now squared on Writers Union head K.Bhagyaraj for supporting the latter without reading the 'Sarkar' script. Meanwhile Tagore Madhu who has produced several films of ARM including 'Spyder' starring Mahesh Babu has come out strongly about the ace director.

Tagore Madhu has stated "On both personal & professional fronts,I hv travelled with AR Murugadoss,more than anyone else. In last 18 years I hv produced 5 films with him.A genius & a highly disciplined film maker, he never arrived late,ever in 18 years even once,be it script discussion or a shoot or post. He is a very hardworking man when it comes to writing scripts. I know how much passion he has and how much he struggles to create each of his stories, scenes, like his own babies.HE WRITES HIS OWN SCRIPTS! Plain and Simple. There is NO second thought about him."
