Quite a few films have managed to ruffle political feathers over the years. 'Dam 999' is the latest to join the gang
The film Dam 999 that was supposed to release this Friday has been courting trouble with the Tamil Nadu government.
Now, the DMK party has raised the same issue in the Lok Sabha parliamentary session on Thusday, in the presence of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and the UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi,u00a0 apparently suggesting a blanket ban on the film across the country.
The film is apparently a fictionalised version of the long-standing Mullaperiyar dam controversy. The party has complained that Dam 999 is based on an issue over which the Tamil Nadu and Kerala governments are locked in a legal tussle.
