The single judge bench of the Madras High Court has stayed the TN
government’s decision of banning the ‘Viswaroopam’ film for 2 weeks in
the state. However, when the government has filed another petition
challenging the decision in the High Court bench today, Kamal Hassan
virtually breaks apart. He couldn’t release his film even today despite
getting court’s verdict in his favour, because of the government’s
decision.
Addressing a press meet he said “The delay in release of the film
unbalances my financial condition. Therefore, I am forced to sell my
house and some properties to come out of the debts. Yet, the government
is trying to chase me out of the state as if I am it’s enemy. I become a
scapegoat in the state political games. Though, I have no intentions to
hurt anyone’s feelings, my film was branded as anti social and unfit
for the screening in the state. It appears, I have to take asylum in
other state. Even then, if can’t find in our country, then I have to run
for life to some foreign country just like painter MF Hussein went in
the past. However, I am still very hopeful that our social tolerance in
the country is very high and allows my film release soon.”
