SIAA To Taken Against Actress Asin

It may be recalled that the South Indian film industry, comprising the South Indian Artistes’ Association (SIAA), Film Chamber, Producers Council, FEFSI, Distributors’ Association, etc, got together and passed a resolution recently to the effect that stern action would be taken against Kollywood stars who attended the IIFA Awards in Sri Lanka and those who shot for films there.

Now there is news that the honcho of Nadigar Sangham has hinted that action might be taken against Asin for ignoring the warning and shooting for her forthcoming Bollywood film Ready, with Hindi star Salman Khan.

The actress, whose Bollywood career plateaued after the London Dreams debacle, recently signed a Tamil film — Kaavalkaran, with Vijay.Somewhere along the way, the Ghajini girl got an alluring offer from Salman and she did not want to let it slip.

With just a few scenes left for Kaavalkaran, the actress took a break from the shooting and left for Sri Lanka to join the cast and crew there. Despite being fully aware of the sentiments of the south Indian film industry and knowing about the raging controversy, Asin continued to shoot for Ready with Salman.

According to sources, at a time when the FEFSI is still fuming over Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi openly challenging the highest decision-making bodies of the south indian film industry, Asin could be issued a ‘red card’ which will impact her future releases.
