On Wednesday, Chennai City Civil Court issued a notice to Thalaivaa producer Chandra Prakash Jain and director AL Vijay seeking their reply from them before August 14. Petitioner SKR Karnan, from Tirunelveli district filed a plea against the movie claiming that the movie has depicted the Tamil community leaders in the poor light, who lived in Mumbai.
The plea states that Thalaivaa's story resembles the story of SS Kandaswamy and his son SK Ramaswamy, who were the social workers in Mumbai and who saved the Tamil youths becoming anti-social elements.
