Suriya starrer 'Singam' that released last year was a blockbuster hit, running successfully in theatres for more than hundred days. The film saw Anushka Shetty cast opposite Suriya, and was directed by Hari.As we had earlier reported to you, the movie is being remade in Hindi as 'Singham' and stars Ajay Devghn and Kajal Agarwal in the lead roles.
The Tamil flick was produced by Gnanavel Raja in an association with Reliance Big Pictures, and Gnanavel has now requested the Madras High Court for a ban on the release of the Hindi version that is all set to release on July 22.
He cited the following: "The Hindi remake rights were given to Reliance Big Pictures. Then, we came to an agreement with Reliance that when they sell the movie, 25% of the money should be given to us. The movie has now been sold for 80 crore rupees. They're to give us the 25% in it, meaning, 12. 5 crore rupees. But, without even paying up the money they planning to release the movie, and hence, we request a ban in the release of Singham".
The judge ordered that a notice should be sent to the producers of 'Singham' and demand a response from the latter, to take things further.
