Seems like an old ghost is coming back to haunt Shankar and director Balaji Sakthivel, the hit-maker director of Kadhal. The director of St. Joseph School Ms. Jeyarani has lodged a complaint against the producer and director of Kadhal mentioning that since the movie was told to be a real-life story, the parents of the school children assumed that the school was also part of the incidents happened. This trigged anxious enquiries from the parents ruining the peace of the school and its director.
The school is claiming Rs. 20 lakh in compensation for the anxiety caused in this regard. Besides, the petition also alleges that the school was shown in the movie without proper permission from the school authorities. The case has been postponed to August 9, 2009 on which date Shankar and Balaji Sakthivel are asked to appear in the court to provide their part of the argument.
