The poster launch, hosted by SHRISTI CREATION FILM PRODUCTIONS in association with RITUPARNA SENGUPTA, drew widespread attention for its bold narrative and symbolic design.

CHINDI PAKAD explores the underbelly of urban life, tackling themes of addiction, survival, and the human spirit. The eye-catching poster features the title stylized with a green bottle replacing the letter “I” in CHINDI, a powerful visual metaphor for the film’s deeper message.

Speaking at the event, BOMAN IRANI  said, “It’s inspiring to see filmmakers push the envelope and bring untold stories to light. CHINDI PAKAD is one such bold cinematic journey, and I’m honored to be part of this launch at Cannes.”

MAKARAND DESHPANDE, known for his intense character portrayals, added, “The rawness and realism reflected in the poster instantly drew me in. Films like these give voice to the marginalized and offer a powerful mirror to society.”

Director and producer PRASENJIT CHAKRABORTY (PRIYAM) shared, “CHINDI PAKAD is not just a film—it’s a voice from the streets, a story that demands to be heard. Launching the poster at Cannes, with stalwarts like BOMAN IRANI and MAKARAND DESHPANDE, gives the film the global platform it deserves.”

ED Provisional Attachment of Director Shankar’s Assets in Copyright Case

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has temporarily seized assets worth around ₹10.11 crore belonging to renowned Tamil film director S. Shankar. This action follows allegations that his 2010 blockbuster film Enthiran (Robot), featuring Rajinikanth, was based on a storyline titled Jiguba, written by author Aarur Tamilnadan.

Background of the Claims

In 2011, Aarur Tamilnadan filed a formal complaint asserting that Shankar’s film Enthiran was derived from his original work, Jiguba. The complaint led to a civil lawsuit filed in the Madras High Court, accusing Shankar of intellectual property theft and violations of copyright laws.

ED’s Investigation and Findings

The ED launched an inquiry under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002, in response to the allegations. The investigation uncovered that Shankar had earned ₹11.5 crore for his role in the production of Enthiran, which included story development, screenplay writing, and directing the film.

Attachment of Assets

As part of the ongoing investigation, the ED has attached three immovable assets, estimated to be worth ₹10.11 crore, registered under Shankar’s name. These properties have been seized in accordance with the provisions of the PMLA, 2002.

Legal Consequences and Future Steps

This action highlights the ED’s determination to tackle allegations of copyright violations in the film industry. The properties will remain under the ED’s control while the legal process continues. Director Shankar has the opportunity to challenge this decision in a court of law.

This case serves as a significant reminder of the importance of safeguarding intellectual property in the creative sector and the potential legal ramifications of unauthorized use of original work.
