The release of the film 'Parasakthi,' which depicts the 1960s anti-Hindi agitation, has sparked controversy. The BJP denies accusations of using the CBFC for political purposes, stating the board follows rules. The film, distributed by Red Giant Movies owned by Udhayanidhi Stalin's family, shares its title with a 1952 classic. Congress MP Sasikanth Senthil accused the BJP of using institutions for political gain, while BJP leaders claim they would have obstructed the film if political obstruction were the motive.
