She might have tasted a disaster like Soukyam. But it didn’t deter her. Regina Cassandra is back in form with her latest advertisement. In the latest advertisement by a clothing line, she brilliantly nailed the age-old custom of arranged marriage.

The crisp ad starts on with a girl (Regina Cassandra) getting ready as ‘ladke’ wale wait outside to see her. Her father comes in and asks her to fasten up her make-up as the groom-to-be and his family waiting outside. It’s then she replies to her dad how she can decide if he is the ‘one’ by feeding him samosas. The father leaves her room silently.

When the groom-to-be’s parents expressed their consent for the wedding, bride’s father is seen questioning the boy’s parents whether they can visit their house for ‘Ladka Dekhne’.

Upon asking by groom’s mother why they want to see ‘Ladke’, bride’s father says they want to know if Ladka is capable of running a house. Then the boy’s mother states he can barely cook instant noodles, the girl’s father states how his daughter can’t survive only on noodles. A silent spectator so far, the boy suddenly speaks up and asks 10 days time to learn cooking and asks the girl’s father to take a decision only after that.

Chennai: A petition has been filed in the Madras High Court seeking an interim stay on the release of Ramgopal Verma’s multi-lingual film “Killing Veerappan”, based on the operation leading to the killing of the dreaded forest brigand, on the grounds it is full of “false information.”

Citing the trailer of the film released recently, petitioner Paneerselvi of a village in Salem district alleged that the “entire movie is filled up with false information which is nothing but creating law and order problems in Tamil Nadu.”

Seeking a a direction to the state Home Secretary and the Censor Board’s regional office to file a report with regard to issue of U certificate to the film, she sought an interim injunction on the release of the film, set for January 1. The petitioner claimed that the director of the film, produced by Sivaprakash in various languages including Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi, degraded Tamils, speficically women, and depicted that Karnataka police alone had taken all steps to curb the menace of the sandalwood smuggler who was killed in 2004 in a joint operation by the two states.

The petitioner further submitted that the movie falsely depicted the wife of Veerappan as having killed several persons. The film director had visualised some “negative” images about Tamil Nadu police and politicians, she charged.
