Less than a day left for Tamil actor Vijay's Kaththi to release in theatres. But the controversy surrounding the movie refuses to die down. Wonder what the noise is all about? Here you go...

Tamil groups do not want to movie to release as they believe that Lyca Productions has links to Mahinda Rajapaksa. The Sri Lankan President has been accused of massacring innocent Tamil civilians in his war against the LTTE in the island nation. This is even a big political issue in Tamil Nadu.

The Tamil groups are adamant that they won't call off their strike unless the name of the production house is removed from the titles. However, the film-makers can't do that for obvious reasons.

The makers, distributors and exhibitors met to find a solution to the issue but in vain. Vijay's fans are calling the move politically motivated.

Good news is that the makers announced yesterday that the issue was solved amicably and the credit to Lyca has been removed.

"We are happy to announce that all the issues have been solved amicably. 'Kaththi' will release globally as Diwali dhamaka," read a statement from the production house.
