 The South Indian Film Federations had protested against the IIFA
awards function, held in Colombo. They boycotted the awards function
organized by the Sri Lankan Government which had mercilessly murdered
thousands of innocent Tamilians. The Tamil organizations also banned the
actors and actresses who participated in the function. But a few actors
like Hrithik Roshan and Salman Khan paid no heed and went ahead with
their participation.
Hrithik Roshan’s Kites was ousted from the theatres in South India as
a result.
Salman Khan is currently acting in a film which has Asin paired with
him. The Sri Lankan Government has invited the producer to shoot this
film in Sri Lanka. So the film which was to be shot in Mauritius was
relocated to Sri Lanka. The Sri Lankan Government has extended all
facilities for the shooting of this film because Salman Khan had
participated in the IIFA,.
But now there is a protest going on against Asin because of her
pairing up with Salman. Lots of people are calling her up, on her cell
phone, and requesting her not to act in this film.
The Salman Khan film Ready will not be screened in the five states of
South either.
Asin, while speaking about this said, “I also got the invitation to
participate in the IIFA. But respected the emotions and sentiments of
the Tamil people and boycotted that function. But the producer here, has
only signed me to act in the film Ready. I have given my call sheet to
act in his film.”
