The Kerala High Court had recently ordered the I&B ministry to screen the film at the nine-day-long festival

Malayalam film S Durga's film director Sanal Kumar Sasidharan wrote a letter to IFFI director Sunit Tandon to "schedule a screening date for his film" amid complaints by lead actor Kannan Nayar that festival authorities are "avoiding" him. In a fresh series of complaints, Sasidharan writes that requests to screen his film at the film festival are not being taken seriously and that the authorities are "yet to respond" to him. The film "S Durga" was earlier pulled out from the Panorama section of the 48th edition of the ongoing International Film Festival of India (IFFI) along with Marathi film "Nude". Sasidharan had then filed a writ petition in the Kerala High Court against the Information and Broadcasting Ministry's decision to exclude his film from the festival. The court recently ruled in his favour and ordered the ministry to screen the film at the nine-day-long festival, which runs till November 28.
