Check out Lingaa Movie Gallery

The entire film fraternity and Tamil movie buffs spread across the globe are getting ready for a Superstar feast with 'Lingaa' scheduled to release on the forthcoming Friday, December 12, which is also the 65th birthday of its lead actor Rajinikanth. However the legal battle that the makers are facing are far from over.

A couple of days back a single Judge bench has disposed the petition of Raviratnam who claimed that the script of the film directed by K.S.Ravikumar has been copied from 'Mullaivanam' which is a film he made and uploaded in internet. However Raviratnam has made an appeal in the Madras High Court citing the contradiction in the reply filed by Rajinikanth and Ravikumar for his petition. While Rajini had said the story and screenplay of the film has been written by Pon Kumaran Ravikumar has said that Pon Kumaran has written the story while he (Ravikumar) has written the Screenplay for the Rockline Venkatesh Production venture. Raviratnam has stated in his appeal that the Judge has failed to note this contradiction which is well enough to launch an inquiry against those involved with 'Lingaa'. The appeal is going to be heard by the High Court bench on Monday, the 8th of December,.

Meanwhile another person named Sakthivel has filed a case against 'Lingaa' claiming that the film might have been inspired by 'Uyir Anai' which is the story he had written in 2011 about John Penny Quick, the British Officer responsible for the construction of the Mullair Periyar Dam and wanted to launch an inquiry. The petition comes for hearing in a city civil Court on Tuesday, the 9th of December.
