Censor surprised over Rajini’s support for Kadhal Arangam
Nov 29, 2006

Velu Prabhakaran’s Kadal Arangam is recently in news for lots of unfortunate reasons. The movie encountered heavy financial crisis during its production and – it is reported that – upon Rajini’s intervention was saved from the trouble. Velu quoted the same in one of his interviews to the tabloids and stated that his movie would not have seen the light of the day had Rajini not intervened.

The movie is now being given a cold shoulder by the censor officials. The officials, after two rounds of examination declared that the movie is not fit for viewing by general public and release in the theatres if a few objectionable scenes were not cut. However, Velu is aggressive and has now taken the subject to the Delhi tribunal for reevaluation.

In the meanwhile, a censor board official – in one of her interviews – to a Tamil weekly stated that the movie has obscene intercourse and even full frontal nude scenes, which they considered was inappropriate for public viewing. Velu makes it appear as if the movie is based on principles of Periyar. On the other hand, we fear the movie will spark public unrest and controversies if it was released without the recommended cuts, the official stated. We are even surprised as to how Rajini has extended his support for the movie.

We are sure that Rajini had not heard the story and did not have an idea of Velu’s plan to sell an obscene movie under the Periyar tagline, the official further stated.

However, Velu has a totally different perspective for his scenes. He stated that he is a socially responsible citizen and his skin show is only to create an awakening among the public since sex offenses against women forms a major chunk of the crime. He further stated that he wants women to attain physical freedom. We do not know what he means by that though.

Whatever be the reason, the director and the Censor Board have taken to the streets indulging in public fighting. Time will tell as to who was right. Stay tuned for updates.
