There is a stir against the film Thambi Vettothi Sundaram. The film is about cross border snuggling. This film is based on a real incident which took place some 10 years ago in Kanyakumari District.
This film is being produced under the banner J S 24 Frames. Karan, Anjali, Saravanan and others are starring in this film. Vadivudaiyan is directing this film. There was an agitation recently to stop the shooting at Tamil Nadu- Kerala border where the shooting was taking place. With regard to this the director said,” When the police are after bootleggers in Kerala, they escape to Tamil Nadu border.
Similarly if the police try to nab the rice smugglers in Tamil Nadu they escape to Kerala. In my child hood I have seen such incidents in my own eyes. The smugglers including the lorry drivers use to live a lavish life. I use to see them as heroes. But ultimately their deeds end in violence. This film is based on these real incidents which can never be erased from my mind. The characters in this film are real and not imaginary. Karan has donned the role of a real character called Sundaram. Anjali is doing the role of Lourde Mary. Saravanan has donned the role of Subbiah. Kadhal Dhandapani and J G are also in the cast. The shooting of the film took place in Kaliakavinai and Puliyur which are the villages situated in Tamil Nadu- Kerala border. There was lot of objections for shooting at these places since the film was based on real incidence. But in spite of this I had completed 50% of the shooting. I am also planning to make the real smugglers to act in this film.”
