Those associated with regional cinema always
had this grudge and to add fuel to the fire the
Bollywood industry started IIFA (International
Indian film academy) and many people protested
to change the title to International Hindi or
Bollywood film academy as only the Hindi movies
were awarded at the function.
So this year's IFFI, decided to make up for it
by calling a South Indian film personality to
preside over as the chief guest of the award function.
But where there are supporters, there is bound
to be some detractors too. These famous people
suggested the name of the Hindi Veteran star Dharmendra
and the others suggested the name of Superstar,
Rajinikanth. This comes as no surprise as Rajinikanth's
latest movie Sivaji was not just a superhit in
Tamil Nadu but a worldwide blockbuster. The movie
made many realize that Indian movies are not just
the products churned out by Bollywood.
Even though calling Rajinikanth was for the best,
many voiced that the superstar will definitely
turn down this offer as the hero hardly comes
for such social gatherings. But Mr. L.Suresh,
president of the South Indian chamber of commerce
said that he will take it upon himself to call
the superstar and he assured that he will make
it. And on the other hand T.P.Agarwal, one of
the members of IFFI said that he is responsible
in bringing Mr.Dharmendra. So after the worn out
clash between Amitabh Vs Rajini kanth now it's
the royal rumble between the Dashing Dharmendra
and the Stylish Superstar.
