ORDER

The criminal original petition has been filed to direct the

1^st and 2^nd respondent to take immediate action against the 3^rd and

4^th respondent based on the Director Blue Sattai @ C.Illamaran

complaint dated 11.12.2021 and to raise the restrictions headed

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

in screening the Film Anti Indian in Parvathi Theatre situated

at Periakulam, Theni District.

2.The grievance of the petitioner is that the petitioner is

a Director of Tamil Movie and also social activities. He

recently directed a film viz., Anti Indian for moon pictures.

Initially, the censor board failed to give certificate for them

having some objection. Thereafter, the petitioner was

constrained to move this Court. At the instance of this Court,

obtained the censor certificate and the movie was pleased to

various places and got good accumulation and reviews throughout

the state. This being the case, on 10.12.2021 at about 10.00

p.m. in Parvathi Theatre, Periakulam, Theni District, some

people came there and claimed themselves as the representatives

of the Union Political Party and created objection and

obstructed for process of the movie. Though complaint was lodged

to the third respondent police, the third respondent police

failed to take any action. Further, the petitioner apprehension

is that over through out the state, the same thing might occur

and the petitioner's film may be unlawfully stopped from

screening. Hence, he further lodged a complaint to the

Commissioner of Police, who gave C.No.824/COP/Visitors/2021

directed the petitioner to appear before the Deputy Commissioner

of Police, CCB-I and thereafter, action will be taken.

3.The Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the

respondents submits that there is no complaint pending with the

third respondent police. As regards the petitioner’s complaint,

which was given to the Commissioner of police, Chennai, the same

has been verified. There is no material to substantiate the

grievance of the petitioner that his movie has been stopped

from any centre. If any contemporary materials are produced,

necessary action would be taken.

4.Recording the same, this Criminal Original Petition

is disposed of.
