The
Supreme Court has ordered the Tamil
Nadu government to return the fine of
Rs. 50 lakhs imposed on director Veeru
Devgan. The TN government slapped a
fine of Rs. 50 lakhs on Veeru Devgan
in 2003 for the environmental pollution
caused in Ooty while shooting for the
film Raju Chacha. Ajay Devgan and Kajol
were the lead pair in this film. The
producer filed a case in the Chennai High
Court which was dismissed. However, on appeal
to the Supreme Court it was held that the
fine imposed on Veeru Devgan should be returned.
