Kamal Haasan has been faced with a lot of trouble and opposition ever since he proposed a DTH premiere of his Vishwaroopam, a day ahead of its theatrical release. Members of the Theater Owners Association are now up against the star and are refusing to grant a theatrical release to his movie.

Kamal has now approached the police for help. He met the ADGP (Additional Director General of Police), Law and Order today at the DGP’s (Director General of Police) office in Chennai and has lodged a written complaint against certain vested interests who have been employing restrictive trade practices and even threatening him regarding his DTH plans. They had warned him of intentional power cuts during the DTH telecast and also about illegally pirating the DTH feed. Kamal has given a clear written complaint with all names and other details. But he refused to divulge names to the media.

Kamal later also went to the Chief Secretary’s office in Chennai in relation to this complaint. He reiterated that he would go ahead with the DTH premiere of the movie on 10^th night and with the theatrical release of the movie on 11^th in all three languages.
