The defamation case filed by the lawyers across the state in various magistrate courts against producer AM Rathinam, director Perarasu, actor Vijay and comedian MS Bhaskar came up for hearing at the Madras High Court.It may be recalled that several advocates filed cases against the four for defaming the advocates in their film Sivakasi. The magistrate courts issued summons to the defendants and this was challenged by the defendants at the High Court.
According to the defendants, the film is purely based on imagination and hence it has no hidden agenda. The defendants also claimed that the derogatory scenes were removed from the film. However, the petitioners alleged that proper promos were not made after the deletion. Delivering opinion on the issue, the judge questioned the credibility of the notice that all the scenes are based on imagination. A decision on this issue is expected on July 16th.
