Ettappan in trouble

The name Ettappan, for long, has been associated with treachery. But it is not so, says Ettappan Ramkumar Raja, one of the members of the Ettappan family. According to him, the King has done many good deeds to his subjects.

Wonder why this issue is being raked up after so many decades? Well, it’s all about the film titled Ettappan.

Ramkumar Raja, from the Ettappan lineage, has filed a petition in the Madras High Court that the title of the film should be changed, as it affects the credibility of the King and his descendents.

The story is said to be about a youth cheating people with false promises of obtaining them employment. Srikanth and Navya Nair play the lead pair.

When the issue came up for hearing, the High Court judge ordered the opposite party to file a reply statement within two weeks substantiating their claims.
