Police complaint against another Tamil film

One after the other Tamil movies are finding themselves surrounded by controversies. While Kamal Haasan’s mega filmVishwaroopamis already struggling to hit the theatres in Tamil Nadu, Jayam Ravi’s upcoming filmAadhi Bhagavanhas also landed itself in a controversy. Unlike the first film which is being projected as anti-Muslim, a police complaint has been registered againstAadhi Bhagavanon allegations that it would hurt the sentiments of Hindu devotees. A city-based lawyer has alleged that the title of the film itself defames Hindu Gods.

Speaking about the charges, lead actor Jayam Ravi said, "I am actually surprised when I learnt about the controversy. The film does not have even a single scene against any religion. Except the crew, nobody has watched the film yet. If people watch it, they will understand that it is a different story. My name in the film is Adhi and that's why it is titled AadhiBhagavan. The producer and the director are currently discussing the issue and they will sort it out soon."

In his reaction, director Ameer said, "I have no plans of changing the film's title as of now and we hope to solve this issue as soon as possible. The film is a complete entertainer and will release in February as per schedule."
