Even though producers are well profited with the flick, the distributors are lost a lot. However, this isn't the first case to Rajinikanth in the matter of Losses to distributors.

The distributors decided and gathered protest at Rajinikanth Residence. When they got no answer, they decided to attack director AR Murugadoss also.

The director claimed that about 30 to 40 distributors have been hounding him daily, allegedly seeking compensation for incurring losses from distributing Darbar. He submitted a petition with the Chennai Police Commissioner seeking police protection. When the police did not take swift action, he escalated his petition to the court.
