In 2014, Lingusamy produced Suriya-starrer Anjaan, which was directed by himself, and Kamal Haasan's Uttama Villain (2015), which was directed by Ramesh Aravind. The producer suffered losses, because of the failure of Anjaan, which affected the production of the latter. Hence, in order to overcome the losses, Thirrupathi Brothers, sold the rights of Uttama Villain and the Sivakarthikeyan-starrer Rajinimurugan (2015), to Eros International, and also borrowed money from local distributors, during the release of Uttama Villain. However, a week before its release, producer R. Thangaraj of Thangam Cinemas, filed a case to stay the release of the film, since Lingusamy had to pay an amount of ₹2 crore, to the producer. But, as per sources, the company has a deficit ₹20 crore, at the time of the release, which led to a wrangle between financiers and producers. Due to the dispute, the film which was initially slated to release on 1 May 2015, had a delayed release, leading to a loss of ₹12 crore. The film was a failure upon its release, leading to huge financial crisis for the production house.
The banner's next production Rajinimurugan, which was initially slated to release in September 2015, had a delay, because of the financial crisis, and the producer, who has to settle payment for Eros International, which ballooned the amount to ₹20 crore, after the failure of Uttama Villain. After setting disputes, the film was released in January 2016, and was a commercial success. But the financial crisis of the company, led to halt their other projects; Idam Porul Yaeval, which was directed by Seenu Ramasamy, starring Vijay Sethupathi and Vishnu Vishal, remained unreleased, and other two projects Ra Ra Rajashekhar and Naan Thaan Siva, were ultimately halted.
