The cast and crew of 'Nanban' have thanked Tamil
Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, for offering the government's
support to meaningful movies.
Newspaper advertisements of the film today
carried a photograph of the CM, with lines expressing the team's
gratitude to her.
The Shankar directed film, which has Vijay,
Jiiva and Srikanth in the lead roles, has emerged the first movie to be
granted entertainment tax waiver, after the AIADMK led by Jayalalithaa
came to power in May last year.
Thanking the Chief Minister for the government's
gesture, the advertisement read: "The Chief Minister has always been
supporting meaningful movies. We specially thank her on behalf of
everyone who had worked for Nanban."
As per the new rules from the TN government, a movie
applying for tax exemption should have a 'U' certificate from the
Regional Censor Board and should keep within Tamil culture and
sensibility. Since a 22-member committee felt 'Nanban' followed all the
rules, it recommended the movie fit to be exempted from tax (30%).
