Leading South Indian action hero Vishal a couple of months back boldly exposed corruption in the Central Board Of Film Certification (CBFC). He shared about having to shell out around 6.5 lakhs rupees to get the censor of the Hindi version of his recent blockbuster hit 'Mark Antony'

Vishal wrote on X "#Corruption being shown on silver screen is fine. But not in real life. Cant digest. Especially in govt offices. And even worse happening in #CBFC Mumbai office. Had to pay 6.5 lacs for my film #MarkAntonyHindi version. 2 transactions. 3 Lakhs for screening and 3.5 Lakhs for certificate. Never faced this situation ever in my career. Had no option but to pay the concerned mediator #Menaga coz too much at stake since movie released today."

Vishal took the matter to the highest level adding "Bringing this to the notice of Hon Chief Minister of Maharashtra and my Hon PM Narendra Modiji. Doing this is not for me but for future producers. NOT HAPPENING. My hard earned money gone for corruption ??? No way. Evidence down for all to hear. Hope truth prevails as always. GB"

The government then issued a statement that action would be taken on those alleged by Vishal. Earlier today in connection with the matter the busy actor updated "Now on my way to CBI office in Mumbai for an enquiry regarding the CBFC case. Lol. Never ever thought I will be going to this office too in my life."

After couple of hours Vishal has shared his experience on X "Just finished my visit to CBI office in Mumbai for an enquiry regarding the CBFC case. Was a complete new experience and am glad the way the enquiry is being conducted. Took some inputs too about how a CBI office would look like. Lol. Never ever thought in my life I will be going to this Govt office too. Need to step in to stand up against corruption in real life too and not just in reel life."

On the professional front Vishal is busy shooting for his 34th film directed by Hari in which Priya Bhavani Shankar is his pair and Yogi Babu playing an important character. It is said that the action entertainer has been titled 'Parisu' and will be officially announced on December 1st with the first look.
