Producer-actor Udhayanidhi Stalin is today approaching the court to file a case against both the government and the Tax Exemption Committee for rejecting an exemption for his movie sighting that the name of the movie Manithan is not a Tamil word. The movie received a U certificate.
This is not the first time that the producer-actor is facing such issues. In the past almost all his movies had faced similar issues.
Recently, a government committee that saw the film has said that the title Manithan is not a Tamil word and hence they cannot stand to benefit tax exemptions.
Udhay says, ‘Had they given my film the tax exemption, I would have been shocked. I expected this denial and I am not suprrised at all. They denied it and they gave me a reason, which is very silly.
They say Manithan is not a Tamil word, it is Sanskrit.’
