The Tamil Nadu Film Producer’s Council has decided not to release any new films from October 6. This decision was taken at an emergency meeting held yesterday (October 3).
The TFPC made the decision as a mark of protest against the TN Government’s decision to impose a local tax of 10% on Tamil films. For non-Tamil films, the tax has been fixed at 20%.
Multiplexes in Chennai have also declared that they will shut down indefinitely to protest this taxation.
