| Bala-Ajith
issue: Nadigar Sangam to intervene? |

The
storm is indeed on. The Ajith-Bala episode
might snowball into a controversy which
could divide the industry vertically. |
|
| |
Ajith has kept mum on the affair
but opinion is building up that
the entire instance should be viewed
seriously and Bala should be hauled
up if he indeed had intimidated
Ajith. There are several voices
that Vijayakanth and Nadigar Sangam
should intervene and come out with
a decision. But, Vijayakanth has
indicated subtly that he would do
something only if Ajith gives a
formal complaint. People consider
that this is a way of evading the
issue, as Vijayakanth does not want
to help Ajith who had ignored the
Sangam previously.

The
Captain however stoutly refuses this. He
promised that the issue would be discussed
at the executive meeting of the Sangam to
be held soon. |
|
Leading
actors are shaken by the whole incident.
One actor who chose to be anonymous
said, “If such a thing could
do happen to Ajith who has lakhs of
fans, think of up and coming actors.
They could be easily bullied and coerced.
This would mean that Kollywood would
also come under the grips of dons
like Bollywood. Such an ugly scenario
should never be allowed to develop.
We have been contacting Ajith to take
some action. |

|
| Whether
the Nadigar Sangam discusses the issue or
not, the actors would convene a meeting
and reach some formula to tackle such issues
in the future. The venue would be kept secret.
We have been contacting leading actors and
actresses over the phone. You could soon
hear some significant developments.
This is a new development in the industry
where actors and actresses have always abided
by the Sangam’s rulings and guidelines.
This time round they feel that the Sangam’s
top brass might not be interested in the
issue and hence they have taken the onus
in their own hands. Watch out for more updates. |
