Vaiko seeks ban on 'Madras Cafe' after Naam Tamizhar
After Naam Tamizhar, Vaiko's MDMK has sought a ban on John Abraham-starrer political-thriller "Madras Cafe", alleging that it portrays LTTE in a bad light. "I request the centre to ban the film. The film should not be allowed to release and if screened, human rights organisations should protest against it in cities like Mumbai," Vaiko said in a statement. "I also urge the Tamil Nadu government to ban the film in the state," he added. "Madras Cafe", directed by Shoojit Sircar, is a fictional story based on real events that took place during Sri Lankan civil war. When the film's trailer was released in July, the Tamil activist group Naam Tamizhar lead by filmmaker Seeman sought a ban on the film on the grounds of portraying LTTE cadres as terrorist. On Sunday, a special screening of the dubbed version of "Madras Cafe" was organized for the group, but they are sticking to their guns. Seeman said: "The film tries to portray late LTTE chief Prabhakaran as a terrorist. We don't appreciate it and request the distributors not to screen the film in the state. The sentiment of the film is anti-Tamil and we don't agree with it". The film also features Nargis Fakhri, Rashi Khanna and Leena Maria is ready for Friday release.
Karthi learnt football for Madras
Karthi doesn't play a football player in upcoming Tamil actioner "Madras", but he learnt to play the sport because it was required for his role, says the movie's director Ranjith, who is in awe of the actor's dedication. "Karthi plays one of the characters in North Madras, where people play football a lot. There are football sequences in the film and Karthi underwent ten days of training to play the sport like a novice. I never asked him to train, but he was very particular about making it look authentic," Ranjith said. "He is a highly dedicated actor. There have been instances where I've called him at 3 a.m. and asked him to come for shooting. We have also shot straight 30 hours without a break and he never complained about anything," added Ranjith. "Madras", which also features Catherine Tresa, is a slice-of-life story of people living in North Madras. Meanwhile, Karthi has started shooting for Tamil entertainer "Komban" recently. He sports a handlebar mustache for his role in it.
Rajapaksa didn't secretly finance 'Madras Cafe': John Abraham
Refuting rumours that Sri Lankan president Mahinda Rajapaksa secretly invested in upcoming political spy-thriller "Madras Cafe", John Abraham Monday said that this wasn't true. "It's not true that Rajapaksa secretly financed my film. Viacom 18 Motion Pictures is the producer of my film. They would feel bad about these rumours and therefore I'm clarifying again that it has not been secretly financed by anyone other than my producers," John told reporters here. He was speaking at a promotional event of "Madras Cafe", which is being dubbed in Tamil with the same name. The Tamil version will release simultaneously with its Hindi version on Aug 23. "We have been very logical about our budget. We have kept the budget very low. We have not been extravagant with the budget. Our agenda was to tell a story and we have concentrated on only that," he said. "Madras Cafe", based on true events about a covert operation conducted in Sri Lanka in the late 1990s, is directed by Shoojit Sircar. The film also features Nargis Fakhri, Prosenjit Chaterjee and Rashi Khanna in important roles.
