After days of uncertainty over the screening of S Durga at the ongoing International Film Festival Of India, the festival directorSunil Tandon has finally sent a letter to the film’s director Sanal Sasidharan asking him to submit the censored copy of the film for screening.
A spokesperson for the filmmaker said on Saturday that the required documents and film copies would be submitted to the IFFI organisers by the afternoon.
The film was unceremoniously dropped from the festival last week despite being chosen by the 13 member jury. Marathi film Nude was also dropped. Sasidharan had appealed to the court to intervene.
Earlier this week, the Kerala High Court directed IFFI to screen the film at the festival. Sasidharan had later stated that despite court order the film wasn’t being screened at the festival taking place in Goa.
