Apart from being a fantastic actor, Suriya is also a highly skilled producer who has bankrolled quality films like 36 Vayadhinile, Pasanga 2, Magalir Mattum, Uriyadi 2, Soorarai Pottru, and more. Suriya produces films under his banner of 2d Entertainment which holds a prominent place in Tamil cinema. Having said that, the esteemed production house has now filed a police complaint against a fraud who impersonated 2D Entertainment and cheated budding actors financially. Asking the cinema aspirants to send money for casting auditions, a young man has indulged in this fraudulent activity which has now come to light.
A series of tweets were made through the official Twitter handle of 2D Entertainment in which it was clarified that the company never accepts or receives money for casting auditions and in addition, it has been made clear that the auditions are usually conducted by directors and their respective teams, and not the production house. While a Police complaint has been filed, 2D Entertainment also requested people not to be falsely guided by these unauthenticated profiles.
The official statement from 2D Entertainment read, "BEWARE!! IMPOSTER ALERT! We came to know that some fraudulent person has created a fake email ID (2dentertainment.gokul@gmail.com) using the name of 2D Entertainment, along with our logo, and inviting gullible persons for auditions and soliciting certain payments. 2D Entertainment Private Limited does not conduct any such auditions directly. All auditions for our projects are conducted only by the respective Director’s team in their respective offices.
We do not charge any payment for auditions. 2D Entertainment is lodging a police complaint against this imposter who has misused 2D Entertainment’s name & logo and tried to commit fraud on gullible persons.
