Drama at film producers’ meeting

CHENNAI: High drama prevailed at the extraordinary general body meeting of the Tamil Nadu Film Producers’ Council (TNFPC) on Sunday. Followers of TNFPC president S A Chandrasekaran engaged in heated arguments with members of producer Keyaar’s camp, as policemen struggled to keep the situation under control. While Keyaar’s camp accused Chandrasekaran of being callous towards his work as the president of the council, the Chandrasekaran’s side claimed that Keyar was deliberately creating a ruckus for “personal gain”.The Madras high court had appointed retired judge Justice E Padmanabhan to preside over the meeting. Members voted after a no-confidence motion was moved against the president. The result will be announced this week.
