Kamal Hassan’s ‘Viswaroopam’ movie, though had High Court clearance today for its release in Tamilnadu state, Jayalalitha government has filed another petition in the same court challenging the single judge’s verdict, which may come-up before the court in the second half today. So, Kamal Hassan was still unable to release his film in the state as the theater owners asks for the copies of the court judgment that allows screening of the film.
Speaking at a press meet held at Chennai, Kamal Hassan become very emotional and almost burst into tears for the obstructions. He said “It was my dream project for which I even have sold my house and properties to meet the financial demands that arise due to delay in release of the film. I have never thought of hurting anyone’s feelings with my films. In fact, I don’t want to disturb the social fabric of the country with my films. I strongly believe that all this happens only because of some political games between two groups and I become scapegoat between them. It appears the Tamilnadu government wants to chase me out of the state for untold reasons. If, I don’t find a place for myself in the country, then I have to flee away to some foreign country just like noted painter MF Hussein did in the past. However, I am still very hopeful about our social tolerance in the country.”
