Elred Kumar plans second release of MUK without cutsPGV [ Fri, Mar 23, 2012 ]
- Director Elred Kumar's Muppozhudum Un Karpanaigal starring Atharva and Amala Paul was released recently. But he isn't happy because the film was subjected to 32 cuts which robbed it of its effervescence.
He needed to conform to the 32 cuts imposed at the film by the Censor Board given that he would get 30 per cent entertainment tax concession extended by the federal government to 'U' certificate films. With the 32 cuts MUK was granted 'U'.
But it seems like Elred wouldn't rest till his original version reaches out to the people.
As no tax benefit comes in Andhra Pradesh, he's going to release the Telugu version of the film with none cuts towards the top of April or within the first week of May.
He feels the unique script of MUK got distorted with the 32 cuts.. Moreover, the way in which the film was made have been affected. So, he's considering the opportunity of releasing a second version of MOU in Tamil just like the Telugu version with none cuts. "I DO NOT mind the film getting an 'A' certificate this time," he says.
