Rajini's
Sivaji suffered a minor setback and the
shoots were halted for a while owing to
the confusion created by a cop. Sivaji
is progressing in and around Chennai city
and the crew is busy shooting vital parts
of the movie with junior artistes in huge
numbers in prominent locations. Recently,
Pulianthope had been the venue for the
shoots and scenes of Rajini being arrested
by a cop were canned.
The
crew is now busy shooting in a high
school in the vicinity of Pachayappas
College. When the shoots were progressing
with Rajini and 300 other junior artistes,
a cop appeared and demanded for the
cancellation of shoots. The inspector
stated that no permission has been
obtained by the crew for conducting
shoots in the school. When the crew
members informed that prior permission
had been obtained, the obstinate cop
insisted that the go-ahead should
have been obtained from the Police
Commissioner Office.
This led to confusion among the crew
and they exchanged verbal row with
the cop. After a while, Senior Police
Officials were informed and the chaos
came to an end when the cop left the
place. The shoots were resumed afterwards.
Sivaji,
being Rajini's venture after Chandramukhi
has created huge expectations among the
public due to numerous factors such as
Shankar, Rajini's pepped up new look,
Rahman's music, and Shreya. The mega movie
is slated for an early 2007 release and
is expected to break all the box office
records that Chandramukhi created.
