The Sri Lankan censors had recently butchered Suriya’s 7aum Arivu, as it had lot of dialogues glorifying the Tamils.
The Sri Lankan censors do not want to promote any kind of jingoism. Now they are going through all Tamil films with a fine comb. The Hindu Munnani Katchi of Tamil Nadu has urged all filmmakers not to screen their movies in the island nation.
This has made Sasikumar see red. He has said that his Porali would not release in Sri Lanka.
However the trade feels Sasikumar is playing it safe, as the film is said to have glorified the Tamils and has also pro-LTTE references.
