Dasavatharam - Problems and more !

Controversy seems to be following Dasavatharam, with just a few more weeks remaining for its release. First it was trouble during audio launch with journalist and media not being given good treatment, Then the rumors related to Jackie Chan, which said that he did not like his Indian visit and Jackie subsequently clearing this in his personal blog, Then the Mallika dress trouble and now its the turn of Hindu Organisations to protest against the objectionable content in the movie.


Nope, its not any more trouble with the dress that Mallika wears, its the clash between saivite and vaishanvite saints during the 16th century AD that is picturized in the movie that the Hindu outfits now find objectionable.

A petition has been filed by International Sri Vaishnava Dharma Samrakshanaa Society, president Swami Govinda Ramanuja Dasa in the Madras High Court and has asked for direction to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to remove scenes. They have also objected to the name of the movie, which hurts the Hindu sentiments.It still remains to be seen if these scenes will be deleted from the movie as the movie has already been issued a clean U certificate by the censor board. The movie has already won the praise of CM Karunanidhi.

No more `Singam` for Vijay

Looks like Vijay is not being lucky with the title he choses for his next movie after Kuruvi. Initially he chose ‘Seval’ which is director Hari’s upcomming movie with Bharath, but Hari refused to part with the title to Vijay.

Now Hari has again announced that his next project with Surya is titled Singam. Yes the same title that Vijay was going to act in under Prabhudeva direction. The lead actress of this movie with Vijay is Nayantara.The buzz is that the clash between director Hari and Vijay started when Vijay refused call sheet for Hari’s ‘Vel’ because of his prior commitment to ‘Azhagiya Tamizh Magan’.
