Tamil cinema is in a danger zone, says Aari
Actor Aari has lashed out at various film bodies including Tamil Film Producers Council, Distributors Association, exhibitors etc. He did not spare the state government also while freely criticising its liqour policies. He criticised the movie industry associations and theatres for not supporting small films.
The Maya actor, who took a short break from Cyclone Gaja relief work, was present at the audio launch of Dhoni Kabbadi Kuzhu and he said, “I appreciate producer Nandhakumar for making a film based on a sport belonging to Tamil culture and tradition. Earlier, actor Appu Kutty said that it’s nice to see the trailer of Dhoni Kabbadi Kuzhu without a single shot of ‘liquor’ in a scene. I am happy that the makers of this film didn’t bank on such scenes.” After a pause, he added sarcastically, “But Tamil Nadu Government is not shutting down TASMAC, because they depend on its huge income (smiles).”
