Does Manchu Manoj's 'Okkadu Migiladu' glorify LTTE?

  • IndiaGlitz, [Monday,October 31 2016]

After films like 'Ukodathara Ulikkipadathara', 'Current Theega', and 'Shourya', Manchu Manoj is going to be seen in 'Okkadu Migiladu'. It's directed by Ajay Andrews. Shot in Vizag and other places, it has Manoj playing two roles. Based on the now-eliminated LTTE saga, it sees the actor playing an LTTE militant in one of the roles.

Ever since the release of the First Look on the eve of Diwali, the film has managed to raise interest in sections of audience. "This is based on our brotherhood #LTTE. Here you can (see) our freedom flag and Tiger in blood logo!" a tweet shared by Manchu Manoj reads.

The film is set in the 1990s.
