This director wins!

Director Bharathiraja has been declared the winner in the Directors’ Council elections held yesterday at the Film Chamber of commerce in Chennai. It is worth mentioning here that Bharathiraja was declared the president of the council unanimously in May this year. This was strongly condemned by another section of the directors. Director R.C. Shakthi filed

a petition in the City Civil Court to seeking fresh elections. The magistrate appointed two advocate commissioners to conduct the elections fairly.

The elections began at 9 am yesterday and almost all directors including Bharathiraja, R.C. Shakthi, Ameer, V. Sekar, Thangar Bachchan cast their vote. The results were declared by evening. Bharathiraja beat his rival R.C. Shakthi by 363 votes. R.K. Selvamani was voted as the Secretary and R. Sundarrajan as Treasurer.
