Chennai: The Tamil version of John Abraham-starrer "Madras Cafe" is yet to get a clearance for release from the Central Board of Film Certification, the Madurai bench of the Madras High Court was told Wednesday.
The Hindi version of the movie releases Friday.
"A Madurai bench Wednesday observed that the Tamil version should not be released without an appropriate certificate. The case has been posted to Sep 3," petitioner B. Stalin told IANS.
Stalin, an advocate, had filed a PIL seeking a ban on the film, alleging that it contained "objectionable content" and might lead to law and problems if released.
The film came under the scanner after Tamil activists alleged that it portrays the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) cadres as terrorists.
