Kamal Haasan and controversy go hand in hand

Inviting controversies, sometimes leading to legal challenge by his 'opponents', seems to be as easy for ace actor Kamal Haasan as essaying a variety of characters on celluloid.

At least, that's what one can make out from the latest legal row into which he has got over his new film ''Dasaavatharam'' in which he portrays as many as ten characters as the mythological sounding title suggests.

Kamal has been dragged to court by a litigant who after having filed a police complaint for plagiarism and fraud, also moved the Madras High Court seeking a stay on the film.

His contention before the court is that Kamal had cheated him as it was he who had authored the story and submitted it to the actor, whose office accepted the story and promised to make him the Assistant Director of the film. But Kamal went on to shoot of the film claiming that he himself had authored the story.

The high court has issued an interim injunction and ordered notice to the actor, the producer Oscar Films and the Director K S Ravikumar with whom Kamal has given some hits at the box office.

''Dasaavatharam'' is expected to be released on Tamil New Year day in April.

And as mentioned, this is not the first time the Actor-Producer-Director Kamal has got into trouble. In fact, for three years in a row, Kamal's films had run into trouble before ultimately being released.

First, it was his own directorial venture ''Virumandi'' supposedly portraying a particular community, which ran into trouble over its previous title, which a political party dubbed as potentially exciting communal passion. Even the then Tamil Nadu government had had to intervene forcing Kamal to change the title to ''Virumandi''.
