The 2014 Tamil film Lingaa, despite being one of the highest-grossing Tamil films of the year, was considered a box-office bomb due to the high production and distribution costs involved. The distributors faced huge losses and asked for their money back, with few of them submitted petitions to go on a hunger strike to protest against the losses incurred. Many of them claimed that the film had incurred only 30 percent of the down payment after 25 days of its release. Rajinikanth later refunded one-third of the ₹33 crore (US$4.1 million) loss reportedly incurred by distributors and exhibitors. He decided to pay them ₹10 crore (US$1.3 million) 'on a humanitarian basis', who demanded a full refund and had threatened a "begging protest" in front of the actor's residence.
