August 21, 2013 19:29

Opposing the screening of Madras Cafe in Mumbai for allegedly portraying the outlawed LTTE in a bad light, the BJP today warned that its activists would take to the streets if the film was screened in Mumbai.

"The film with John Abraham in a leading role has a negative portrayal of LTTE chief V Prabhakaran. The movie deals with the Rajiv Gandhi assassination and mentions Tamil organisations as terror outfits," Mumbai BJP president Ashish Shelar said.
