After
Bharathiraja, it’s the turn of actor-director
Cheran to condemn the poster of
Irandam Kuthu
. Cheran, today, shared on his micro-blogging page that the public should boycott such films. He added, “It’s because of the good box office collection for Iruttu Araiyil Murattu Kuthu’ that the makers have made the second film. This poster is disgusting and we should all condemn it. Let’s nip these kind of films in the bud. I request the state government to ban such films as well.”
Bharathiraja had earlier expressed his displeasure over the teaser of the adult film. The ace director had written in a statement that the such vulgarity shouldn’t find a place in Tamil cinema.

that featured Kamal Haasan, Madhavi, Radha and Swapna in the lead.
He later apologised to the tweet saying that he had tweeted at the heat of the moment and that he was apologetic about the same. Bharathiraja is one of the most respected and admired directors in the film industry and I shouldn't have responded in such a manner.
