Periyar remark row: Dravidian group moves HC, demands FIR against Rajinikanth

Dravidian group moves HC and wants FIR to be filed against Rajinikanth. The controversy had started in a recent speech by the 69-year-old actor at an event to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Tamil magazine Thuglaq, started by playwright-turned-journalist Cho. Ramasamy and currently run by right-wing ideologue S Gurumurthy.

"No other journal covered it but Cho ran it on the cover of the magazine and delivered a severe condemnation," Rajinikanth had said.
