Filmmaker Venkat Prabhu has quashed rumours that the first poster of his upcoming Tamil directorial , which was recently unveiled, is copied from one of the posters of Hollywood film The Bourne Ultimatum.

Prabhu explained that the poster was shot using a popular style called mugshot, which has been used by several Hollywood films.

"A section of the audience claims the first poster of Masss is copied from a popular Hollywood film. Well, to clarify all the doubters and those who claim it as a copy, here we go. This is a style called mugshot, which has been used by many Hollywood movies," Prabhu posted on his Facebook page Thursday.

"So, we suggest the fans of Tamil cinema to take a deep look before colouring anything as a copy," he added.

Prabhu also posted the posters of some Hollywood films such as The Grey and Salt that have used the mugshot.

The poster of Masss, which features Suriya, shows a photographic portrait of the actor's face.
