Adaminte Makan Abu screening banned

The screening of the National award winner movie Adaminte Makan Abu has been banned by a court in Kerala. Last week, producer Ashraf Bedi had lodged a complaint against director Salim Ahmmed for sending the movie to the National Film Award Committee for the award without mentioning his name as a producer.

In his complaint, Ashraf Bedi had claimed that his name was excluded in the documents, which were submitted to the National Film Award Committee. After hearing his case, a judge at the Calicut Court has granted an interim stay order against the screening and distribution of the film Adaminte Makan Abu.

However, the Malayalam film is a thought-provoking portrayal of a man's search for a religious identity. Adaminte Makan Abu has bagged eight National and State film awards. Hero Salim Kumar has been adjudged as the Best Actor at both National and State film awards.
